LEBANESE DESSERT RECIPE - ZNOUD EL SIT / BREAD RECIPES

DESSERTS RECIPES / LEBANESE DESSERTS

Znoud el sit is a Lebanese dessert made of filo pastry ( like puff pastry or spring roll pastry) which is available in the middle Eastern grocery frozen section. But many of us are unable to get this pastry easily and so here is an easy method for making this melt in mouth Lebanese dessert at home. I substituted bread slices instead of fillo sheets. Bread snacks and bread desserts are pretty easy to make and delicious too. This dessert using bread is also one among the same. Quite easy to make and is really delicious in each bites. Here white bread slices are flattened, stuffed with cheese, rolled, deep fried and then dipped in flavored syrup. Sugar syrup is flavored with rose water and orange blossom water. As I don't have orange blossom water, I skip the same. You can use thick cream or ashta cream ( made with cornflour and condensed milk ) instead. Hey sweet lovers, this dessert recipe or sweet recipe with bread is for you. You can attract your guests with this inviting and attractive sweet. Hope you all like this lebanese dessert and do try at home atleast once. Drop your feedback and please subscribe my channel Ayesha's kitchen if you like my videos .
