Comment préparer Cream Kunafa

  1. **Syrup Preparation:**
  2. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup water, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, and 2 tablespoons lemon juice. Bring to a boil over high heat.
  3. Reduce heat to low and simmer until a light, syrupy consistency is reached (about 10-15 minutes).
  4. Stir in 1 teaspoon orange blossom water. Remove from heat, cool completely, and refrigerate.
  5. **Cream Filling:**
  6. In a medium saucepan, heat 4 cups whole milk over high heat.
  7. Gradually whisk in ½ cup rice flour, ensuring no lumps form. Whisk continuously.
  8. Add 2 ½ - 3 small (approx. 14 oz each) cans of plain keshta (or 4 ½ cans for a larger pan). Mix well.
  9. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes, whisking constantly every minute to prevent burning.
  10. Stir in ¾ cup granulated sugar. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
  11. **Assembly & Baking:**
  12. In a large bowl, gently break apart 1 pound of kataifi pastry, separating all the strings.
  13. Melt ½ cup unsalted butter. Pour over the kataifi pastry and toss to coat evenly.
  14. In an 11-12 inch pie pan, press half of the buttered kataifi pastry into the bottom, creating an even layer.
  15. Spread the cooled cream filling evenly over the pastry layer.
  16. Top with the remaining kataifi pastry, pressing down gently.
  17. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 45-50 minutes, or until golden brown.
  18. **Finishing Touches:**
  19. While the kunafa is still warm, pour half of the chilled sugar syrup over the top.
  20. Garnish with ½ cup chopped pistachios.
  21. Let cool to room temperature before serving. Reserve remaining syrup for serving.
