Karen Mintzias
4 Eggs
1 lb Blanched almonds
- finely chopped
1 1/2 c Sugar
1 lb Mixed glace' fruit
- finely chopped
1 1/2 c Sugar
1 lb Phyllo pastry sheets
1 lb Sweet butter -- melted
-----SYRUP-----
3 c Sugar
2 c Water
1/2 Lemon (juice only)
1 Cinnamon stick
Beat eggs until light. Fold in almonds and sugar. Stir in fruit. Take 2
sheets of phyllo pastry, brush one at a time with melted butter, and place
one on top of the other. On the long end of the phyllo sheet spread some
of the fruit-and-nut mixture in a band about 1 inch wide. Fold in ends and
roll like a jelly-roll. Place on a cooky sheet and brush top with melted
butter. Make diagonal slits along the whole length, about 1 1/2 inches
apart, being careful not to cut all the way through. Continue making the
rolls until all nut mixture is used. Bake in a preheated 350 F oven for
about 1 1/2 hours or until golden brown. Cut pieces through entire roll.
Dip hot baklava pieces in cold syrup and drain well.
Syrup: In a saucepan, combine all ingredients. Bring to a boil and boil
for 20 minutes. Cool.
