Fake Künefe (You Have to Try This)? This recipe, which is in the cookbooks of dozens of people, and...
Ingredients
- 200 grams of toasted kadayif (I bought it at BİM)
- Half a glass of granulated sugar
- 100 grams of butter
- 1 glass of walnut pieces
- 1 liter of milk
- 4 tablespoons of flour
- 2 tablespoons of starch (corn or wheat—either is fine)
- 1 vanilla bean
Preparation
- First, we’ll start by making the topping. Put the butter in a large skillet and melt it.
- Add the kadayif and sugar to the melted butter.
- Finally, add the walnuts and toast everything over low heat for 15 minutes.
- Then turn off the heat and set it aside.
- For the custard, pour the milk into a deep pot.
- Then add the sugar, flour, and cornstarch, and cook for about 20 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Finally, add the vanilla and turn off the heat.
- Then, if you like, you can layer it in a baking dish—or, as I prefer, in individual cups—starting with kadayif, followed by the custard, and finishing with another layer of kadayif.This is a fantastic recipe for those who don’t like syrupy desserts—it has the flavor of künefe but is a light, syrup-free dessert. With the amounts of ingredients I provided, I made 8 cups. I highly recommend my “fake” künefe recipe to everyone—enjoy!
