Filo Pastry and Filling

Chocolate Drizzle

Method

Preparation of Filling

  1. 1

    Chop and Mix Nuts

    Finely chop the mixed nuts and combine them in a large bowl with ground cinnamon and ground cloves.

  2. 2

    Prepare Honey Mixture

    In a small saucepan, gently heat the honey until it becomes liquid and easily pourable. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

Filo Pastry Assembly

  1. 3

    Melt Butter

    Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat.

  2. 4

    Layer Filo Pastry

    Lay out one sheet of filo pastry on a clean surface. Brush it lightly with melted butter. Repeat this process with 5 sheets, layering them on top of each other.

  3. 5

    Add Nut Filling

    Spread a portion of the nut mixture along one edge of the layered pastry. Drizzle with a bit of the honey mixture.

  4. 6

    Roll Pastry

    Carefully roll the pastry over the filling, tucking in the sides as you go to create a sealed log. Repeat with the remaining pastry sheets and filling.

Baking and Drizzling

  1. 7

    Bake Saragli

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the rolled saragli on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops with remaining melted butter and bake for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown.

  2. 8

    Prepare Chocolate Drizzle

    While the saragli is baking, melt the dark chocolate and coconut oil together in a microwave or over a double boiler until smooth.

  3. 9

    Drizzle Chocolate

    Once the saragli are done baking, remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the top before serving.
