Postopek

Korak za korakom

1
Prepare the syrup by combining the granulated sugar, water, and lemon juice in a small saucepan.
Približno 2 min
2
Bring the syrup mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes until slightly thickened.
Približno 10 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Do not stir the syrup while it's boiling to prevent crystallization.
3
Remove the syrup from the heat and stir in the orange blossom water, if using. Set aside to cool completely.
Kuharjeva opomba: Cool syrup is essential for a crispy gollash.
4
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Približno 10 min
5
In a medium bowl, combine the chopped mixed nuts, granulated sugar for the filling, and cinnamon.
Približno 2 min
6
Lay one sheet of phyllo dough on a clean surface, keeping the remaining sheets covered with a damp cloth to prevent them from drying out.
Približno 1 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Phyllo dries out very quickly, so work efficiently.
7
Brush the phyllo sheet lightly with melted butter.
8
Spread a thin line of the nut mixture along one long edge of the phyllo sheet.
9
Tightly roll the phyllo sheet from the long edge, enclosing the nut filling, until you have a long cigar shape.
Približno 1 min
10
Repeat steps 6-9 with the remaining phyllo sheets and nut mixture.
Približno 10 min
11
Arrange the phyllo rolls in a lightly buttered baking dish, ensuring they fit snugly.
Približno 2 min
Kuharjeva opomba: You can cut the rolls to fit your dish if needed.
12
Brush the tops of the phyllo rolls generously with any remaining melted butter.
Približno 1 min
Kuharjeva opomba: This helps with browning and crispiness.
13
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the gollash is golden brown and crispy.
Približno 30 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.
14
Immediately upon removing from the oven, pour the cooled syrup evenly over the hot gollash.
Približno 1 min
Kuharjeva opomba: The temperature difference helps the gollash absorb the syrup better.
15
Let the gollash rest and absorb the syrup for at least 15 minutes before serving.
Približno 15 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Allowing it to rest enhances the flavor and texture.
