Kadaif

How to make

The kadaif is placed in a greased with butter baking pan. Spread the remaining butter in small pieces on top of the kadaif. The baking pan is placed in a preheated oven at a moderate temperature.

Bake until the kadaif acquires a nice golden crust on top. Let it cool down.

Prepare the syrup from the sugar, water, vanilla, orange juice and strips of lemon and orange peel, which I remove after the syrup boils for about 5 minutes.

I leave it aside for about 15 minutes, so that it is not too hot.

I pour the syrup over the baked kadaif, when it has cooled. When it absorbs the syrup and cools down, cover it with cling film and refrigerate it for at least 12 hours. It turns out even better when it has been left for a while.

I sprinkle crushed hazelnuts on top.

Garnish with whipped cream and fruit of your choice.

The kadaif with hazelnuts is ready.
