Steps:
- Make a syrup by stirring the water, sugar, and lemon juice together in a saucepan over medium heat until thick; set aside to cool.
- Make a filling by combining the ricotta cheese and cornstarch in a small bowl; set aside.
- Make the dough by mixing together the flour and the yeast. Stir the water into the flour mixture 1 cup at a time, whisking to remove any lumps, until the mixture reaches a pourable consistency; allow to rest 1 hour.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. Ladle 2 to 3 ounces of batter at a time into the center of the skillet into a round shape. Each katayef shell is finished when the top is dry and the bottom is slightly browned.
- Fill each shell with an equal portion of the cheese mixture. Fold one end of the shell over the cheese mixture and seal into a semi-circle shape by pinching along the edges.
- Heat the frying oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Fry the katayef in the oil until crispy and lightly browned; immerse in the syrup to coat; serve immediately.

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.
