Description

This oriental cheese thread noodle dish is an absolute highlight! I especially like to make it when I have guests. The combination of crispy dough threads, creamy cheese and sweet syrup is simply irresistible. Instead of the traditional Dil Peyniri, I use mozzarella, which works great. The pistachios provide the perfect crunch. It tastes best warm, straight from the oven. A tip: Prepare the syrup beforehand, then it will be faster!

Prepare cheese mixture

Tear 300 g mozzarella into pieces and mix with 150 g layer cream in a bowl. Roughly crush 100 g pistachios in a mortar or alternatively roughly chop.

Prepare dough threads

Preheat the oven to 200°C top/bottom heat. Place 300 g Kayadif dough threads on a baking sheet, pull them apart a little and pour the melted butter from the mixing bowl over them and mix well.

Shape Künefe

Grease 4 Künefe plates (20 cm diameter) or alternatively creme brulee dishes with the remaining 10 g butter. Spread a layer of dough threads on top and press down with another plate. Spread 2 tbsp of cheese mixture on top, leaving the edge free. Loosely spread the rest of the dough threads on top.
