How to Make Easy Şöbiyet Dessert
– First, let’s prepare the syrup for our dessert. In a suitable saucepan, mix water and sugar and bring to a boil.
– After the syrup boils, add lemon juice and let it simmer for 15 more minutes over low heat. Then, remove from heat and let it cool.
– For the cream, mix milk, semolina, and vanilla sugar in a saucepan.
– Cook the mixture over medium heat until it thickens, then remove from heat and let it cool.
– Melt the butter in a saucepan. Remove any foam that forms on top with a spoon.
– Take one sheet of phyllo pastry and brush it with melted butter on all sides.
– Place another sheet of phyllo pastry on top and brush with butter again.
– Repeat this process, layering the phyllo sheets and brushing each layer with butter until you have used all 15 sheets. Do not brush butter on the top layer.
– Slice the stacked phyllo sheets into squares.
– Place a spoonful of the prepared cream in the center of each square and sprinkle some pistachios on top.
– Fold the pastries into triangles, making sure the edges are tucked underneath to prevent them from opening up during baking.
– After about 15 minutes, when the pastries start to crisp up and the edges turn golden brown, separate them from each other to ensure even baking.
– Brush plenty of butter on top of the pastries and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 20 minutes or until they turn golden brown on top.
– Transfer the baked pastries to a smaller tray and drizzle the cooled syrup over them.
– Let the pastries rest to absorb the syrup, then decorate them as desired before serving. Enjoy your meal!
