Homemade Baklava dessert

Preparation:

1. Gently melt the butter over low heat.

2. In a bowl, combine ground and coarse walnuts. Add sugar and two packets of vanilla sugar, then mix thoroughly. Set aside.

3. Prepare a large round pan and place the 500 g of pastry sheets on it, trimming them to fit the pan. Reserve the trimmed pieces for later use. Repeat this process with the other package, and set aside one round sheet for covering.

4. Lightly coat the pan with oil.

5. Brush the first five sheets with melted butter. While layering these sheets, incorporate the trimmed edges as well.

6. Evenly distribute the walnut and sugar mixture over the pastry sheets.

7. Fold the next sheet, brush it with melted butter, and then add the walnut filling.

8. Continue this process with the subsequent sheets in the same manner.

9. Once you reach the final layers, reserve two sheets for covering, and brush the second-to-last sheet with butter.

10. Cut the baklava into diamond shapes or squares.

11. After cutting, evenly pour melted butter over the baklava.

12. Cover with the reserved round sheet from the beginning.

13. Bake in a preheated oven at 190 °C for approximately 10 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 150 °C and continue baking for about 1 to 1 hour and 25 minutes.

14. While the baklava is baking, prepare a syrup using sugar, water, and lemon.

15. Combine sugar and water in a small saucepan and stir over moderate heat.

16. Once boiling, add one packet of vanilla sugar and three lemon rings with lemon juice. Cook for an additional 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

17. After baking, allow the baklava to cool for 5–7 minutes, then pour the syrup over it using a ladle.

18. Allow the baklava to absorb the syrup. It is best enjoyed the following day.

Buon appetito!

NOTE:

• For a sweeter baklava, incorporate one kilogram of sugar into 1200 ml of water.

• Store the baklava in a cool environment.
