Made by shaping shredded kadayıf pastry into small nests, filling them with pistachio and walnut, and cooking them in the airfryer, this dessert is an individually plated, technique-heavy take on the classic tray kadayıf. Pouring the cold syrup over hot nests keeps them crisp.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Make the syrup

10 min

Boil the sugar and water, add the lemon juice, simmer for ten minutes, then remove from the heat and let cool completely.

2

Prepare the kadayıf

10 min

Pull the shredded kadayıf apart with your hands and work it thoroughly with the melted butter.

3

Shape the nests

10 min

Shape the kadayıf into six small nests and fill the centres with pistachio and walnut.

4

Cook in the airfryer

20 min

Arrange the nests in the airfryer basket and cook at 180°C for twenty minutes until golden on top. If you do not have an airfryer, bake them for the same time in an oven preheated to 180°C. Drizzle the cold syrup over the hot nests.

Reminder

If you do not have an airfryer, you can bake them for the same time in an oven preheated to 180°C. Allergens: contains wheat (gluten), dairy and tree nuts (pistachio, walnut).

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

This recipe is ideal for using up leftover kadayıf strands and walnut pieces; you get individual portions without needing to bake a whole tray.

Airfryer'ım küçük olduğu için 6 yuvayı iki seansta pişirdim, ikinci seans biraz daha hızlı, 16 dakikada altın rengi aldı. Kalan kadayıf ipliklerimi değerlendirmek için gerçekten pratik bir tarif oldu.
