Method

Preparation of Base

  1. 1

    Prepare Phyllo Dough

    Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Lay the phyllo dough flat on a clean surface. Using a pair of scissors, cut the phyllo into small pieces (about 5 cm squares).

  2. 2

    Toast Phyllo

    Spread the cut phyllo pieces evenly on a baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-15 minutes or until golden and crispy. Stir occasionally to ensure even browning.

  3. 3

    Mix Milk Mixture

    In a large saucepan, combine the milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Heat over medium heat until the sugar dissolves completely, stirring occasionally. Do not let it boil.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the baked phyllo pieces, toasted almonds, pistachios, raisins, and coconut flakes. Mix well.

  2. 5

    Pour Milk Mixture

    Pour the warm milk mixture over the combined dry ingredients in the mixing bowl. Stir gently to ensure everything is well-coated.

Baking

  1. 6

    Transfer to Baking Dish

    Grease a large baking dish with butter. Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.

  2. 7

    Add Cream and Cinnamon

    Drizzle the heavy cream evenly over the top of the mixture. Sprinkle ground cinnamon over the cream.

  3. 8

    Bake the Dish

    Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the top is golden and a bit crispy.

  4. 9

    Cool and Serve

    Once baked, remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Serve warm as a dessert.
