Ingredients
- For the dough: 4 cups flour, 1 egg, ½ cup water, ½ cup milk, ½ cup vegetable oil, 1 tablespoon vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt (for rolling out), cornstarch. For the filling: 2 cups coarsely chopped walnuts or pistachios. For the syrup: 4 cups sugar, 4 cups water, a few drops of lemon juice. For the topping: 150 g butter (melted), ½ cup vegetable oil.
Preparation
- 1. Prepare the syrup: Put the water and sugar in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Once boiling, simmer for 10 minutes over medium heat. Add the lemon juice and simmer for another 2-3 minutes. Set aside to cool completely. 2. Knead the dough: Place the flour in a large bowl and make a well in the center. Add the egg, water, milk, vegetable oil, vinegar, and salt, and knead until you obtain a medium-soft dough. Let the dough rest for 10 minutes. 3. Divide and roll out: Divide the dough into 12-14 balls. Roll out each ball thinly with cornstarch until it is slightly larger than the size of the baking tray. Lightly sprinkle cornstarch on the rolled-out dough. 4. Shape the dough: Spread one sheet of dough on the counter and sprinkle generously with walnuts. Place the rolling pin on the wide edge and wrap the dough around the rolling pin. While still wrapped around the rolling pin, gather the edges from both sides to create a twisted shape. Carefully remove from the rolling pin and arrange on a baking tray. Repeat the same process until all the phyllo sheets are used. 5. Greasing: Mix melted butter and vegetable oil. Drizzle generously over the rolled baklava. 6. Baking: Bake in a preheated 170°C oven for 45-55 minutes until golden brown on top and bottom. 7. Syruping: Pour the cold syrup over the hot baklava after it comes out of the oven. Let it rest for at least 3-4 hours; serve after it has absorbed the syrup.
