Time 1h30m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 ½ cups water
1 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 (8 ounce) container ricotta cheese
1 teaspoon cornstarch
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ (.25 ounce) envelopes active dry yeast
3 cups water

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups (240 g) all purpose flour.
1 tsp (3g) dry yeast.
1 Tablespoon (14g) sugar.
1/2 teaspoon (1g) baking powder.
1 Tablespoon (6g) dry powdered milk.
A pinch of salt.
1 3/4 (420 mL) cups of warm water.
Oil for deep frying.
2 cups (400 g) sugar.
1 (240 mL) cup water.
1/4 cup (60 mL) honey
1 tsp lemon juice.
A dash of vanilla powder or 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract.
Filling: nut mixture of your choice (used about two cups mixed nuts and raisins.)

Steps:

  • In a sauce pan over medium heat, add syrup ingredients, stir a little then let it boil.
  • When it boils, reduce heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes.
  • Turn heat off and let it cool down to room temperature, it will thicken as it cools down.
  • In a deep bowl, combine first 6 ingredients, add water and mix well. (Note1)
  • Cover and let it set for 30 minutes.
  • Stir the batter a bit to check consistency if it is too thick then add a tablespoon of water. Batter should be thinner than pancake and not lumpy. (Note2)
  • Heat a griddle or a pan and scoop about 2 Tablespoons of the batter.
  • The batter will bubble at the surface and cooks, do not flip
  • When the surface is longer wet remove and it is golden brown, remove from heat. (Note3)
  • Arrange qatayef bubble side up on a baking sheet and cover with a towel. Set aside until you are finished with the rest of the batter.
  • Continue until you finish all the batter.
  • Hold the pancakes bubble side up, fill with little over a teaspoon of the nut mixture. Do not overfill as it will not close or tear and crack.
  • Fold pancakes in half and pinch the sides to firmly close. (Note4).
  • Heat oil for deep frying over medium heat.
  • For a crispy golden qatayef, fry for like 3 minutes on each side until they are dark golden brown. If you want a softer qatayef, fry them until they are just light golden brown.
  • Take them out of oil place on a paper towel for 5-15 seconds then quickly dip them in the cooled syrup while they are still hot. Toss to cover with syrup.
  • Take qatayef out and let them drip in a colander. The more you leave qatayef in the syrup, the more syrup it will soak and then it will become softer.
