Saragli- Rolled Baklava Recipe

Add Step-by-Step Photos	Greekgirrrl / All my dishes 1 year, 10 months ago A different version of baklava. My mom used to roll it around a wooden dowel, scrunch it and then remove the dowel. It looked better made that way. You can just roll it by hand though. Prep:45m Cook:60m Servings:21	Greekgirrrl
	different greek nut roll

Ingredients

1/2 c up unsalted butter; melted

1 1/2 cups coarsely ground almonds; (7

-ounces)

1 1/2 cups coarsely ground walnuts; (7

-ounces)

1 tsb ground cinnamon

14 sheets phyllo dough (keep between damp towels so it doesn't dry out)

2 cups Honey Syrup; cool, see

-recipe

Directions

Place rack in center of oven, and heat oven to 325 degrees. Brush a

9-by-9-inch pan with melted butter. Set aside.

Combine almonds, walnuts, and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Set aside.

Place one sheet of phyllo on a flat work surface. Brush with melted butter.

Fold the long sides in to form a 9 1/2-by-15-inch rectangle. Brush folded

edges with butter. Place a second piece of phyllo over first sheet, and

gather it like a curtain to fit inside rectangle. Brush with butter.

Sprinkle 3 tablespoons of the nut mixture over the bottom one-third of the

phyllo rectangle.

Fold phyllo over to cover nuts.

Brush folded phyllo with

butter.

Spread 1/4 cup nuts in a 1-inch-wide line parallel to, and about 1

inch from, the edge of pastry.

Fold over once to cover nuts.

Roll like a

cigar almost to the end.

Fold in ragged edges, and brush them with butter.

Finish rolling, and fold ends under.

Place seam-side down in prepared pan.

Brush with butter.

Repeat with remaining phyllo and filling, laying each

roll next to the other so they are touching.

Cut rolls crosswise into 21

pieces total (drag knife through a second time to assure a clean cut).

Transfer to oven, and bake until crust and nuts are evenly golden, 1 hour

to 1 hour and 15 minutes.

Remove pan from oven, and cool for 10 minutes.

In the mean time, in a saucepan, bring 1 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water to a boil til dissolved.

Take off of heat and add 1/2 cup honey. (Attiki brand if you can find it)

Pour cool Honey Syrup over pastry; it will come about three-quarters of the

way up the sides.

Let sit until most of the liquid is absorbed and nuts

are saturated, about 30 minutes.

Thank you! I know it will taste better than anything I can buy, esp because of the honey syrup. Most do not use honey anymore. YMMMMY
