GALAKTOBOUREKO



Galaktoboureko image

This is a recipe that my mom got from a coworker and would make regularly when I was young. Galaktoboureko is a traditional Greek dessert made with a custard in a crispy phyllo pastry shell. After all these years it is still a family favorite. I hope that everyone enjoys it as much as we do.

Time 1h45m

Yield 15

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 cups whole milk
1 cup semolina flour
3 ½ tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup white sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
6 eggs
½ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¾ cup butter, melted
12 sheets phyllo dough
1 cup water
1 cup white sugar

Steps:

  • Pour milk into a large saucepan, and bring to a boil over medium heat. In a medium bowl, whisk together the semolina, cornstarch, 1 cup sugar and salt so there are no cornstarch clumps. When milk comes to a boil, gradually add the semolina mixture, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. Cook, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens and comes to a full boil. Remove from heat, and set aside. Keep warm.
  • In a large bowl, beat eggs with an electric mixer at high speed. Add 1/2 cup of sugar, and whip until thick and pale, about 10 minutes. Stir in vanilla.
  • Fold the whipped eggs into the hot semolina mixture. Partially cover the pan, and set aside to cool.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Butter a 9x13 inch baking dish, and layer 7 sheets of phyllo into the pan, brushing each one with butter as you lay it in. Pour the custard into the pan over the phyllo, and cover with the remaining 5 sheets of phyllo, brushing each sheet with butter as you lay it down.
  • Bake for 40 to 45 minutes in the preheated oven, until the top crust is crisp and the custard filling has set. In a small saucepan, stir together the remaining cup of sugar and water. Bring to a boil. When the Galaktoboureko comes out of the oven, spoon the hot sugar syrup over the top, particularly the edges. Cool completely before cutting and serving. Store in the refrigerator.
