Yield Makes one 8-inch round pastry

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 cups milk
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup (2 sticks), plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Zest from 1 lemon
3/4 cup fine semolina (preferably Greek)
3 large eggs
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
9 sheets phyllo
3 tablespoons confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, combine the milk, 1 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons butter, and lemon zest. Bring to a simmer over low heat. Whisk in semolina, and cook, stirring, until the mixture is thick, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from heat, and whisk in eggs, one at a time. Return saucepan to heat, and cook, stirring constantly, for 30 to 40 seconds, to cook the eggs. Remove custard from heat, and let cool to room temperature.
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In a small saucepan, melt remaining 2 sticks butter with olive oil; use some of this mixture to brush an 8-inch round nonstick springform baking pan. In a small bowl, combine remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1 tablespoon cinnamon.
  • Stack phyllo on a work surface, cover with parchment paper, and top with a damp kitchen towel. Working with one sheet of phyllo at a time, place one of the corners into the center of the pan and gently press the dough so that it fits tightly in the pan. Lay the corner of the second sheet of phyllo into the center of the pan, slightly overlapping the first sheet of phyllo. Press the second sheet tightly into the pan. Lay a third sheet of phyllo in the same manner, covering the remainder of the pan (one layer of dough is now completed). Using a pastry brush, brush the phyllo with a generous amount of the butter mixture. Lightly sprinkle with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  • Place three more sheets of phyllo into the pan in the same manner, brushing with the butter mixture and sprinkling with the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Repeat process again with the remaining 3 sheets of phyllo (you will now have completed three layers). Fill phyllo-lined pan with custard; spread evenly.
  • Working with one layer at a time, fold phyllo sheets toward the center of the pan. Brush generously with the butter mixture and sprinkle with the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Repeat folding, buttering, and sprinkling until all layers have been folded toward the center. Do not sprinkle the top layer as the cinnamon-sugar mixture may burn and darken the pastry. Prick all over with a fork, and bake, on a Silpat-lined baking sheet, until golden brown, about 1 hour.
  • Combine remaining tablespoon of cinnamon with the confectioners' sugar, and sprinkle over the surface of the phyllo when removed from oven. Let rest 5 to 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Categories     Bread     Dessert     Bake     Pastry     Simmer     Boil

Yield makes 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

Semolina Custard
6 cups milk
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup semolina flour (see below)
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
6 eggs, lightly beaten
Syrup
2 cups sugar
1 cinnamon stick
1 1/2 cups water
Zest and juice of 1 medium lemon (about 2 teaspoons grated zest and 3 tablespoons juice)
To Assemble
1/2 cup ground almonds
1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
1/4 cup sugar
1 pound phyllo dough (there will be some sheets left over)
1/2 pound (2 sticks) butter, melted
Semolina Custard
Sugar syrup

Steps:

  • Semolina Custard
  • In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, whisk 5 cups of milk with the sugar and bring almost to a boil. Whisk in the semolina. Bring to a boil, whisking, then cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is thick, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and add the butter, stirring until incorporated. Cool for 5 minutes, then stir in the vanilla, the remaining 1 cup of milk, and the eggs, mixing thoroughly. Cool, cover with plastic or waxed paper, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
  • Syrup
  • Place the sugar, cinnamon, water, zest, and juice in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring, for about 10 minutes, until the syrup thickens and coats a spoon. Remove the cinnamon stick.
  • To Assemble
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Butter an 8-inch square baking pan.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the almonds, bread crumbs, and sugar. Line the baking pan with 8 sheets of phyllo, one sheet at a time (each sheet should overlap its neighbors by an inch or so). Brush each sheet with butter and sprinkle lightly with the almond mixture. The pastry edges should overlap the entire perimeter of the pan. Pour in the cooled custard, spreading evenly, and fold the pastry edges over the custard.
  • Arrange 8 phyllo sheets over the top of the custard, leaf by leaf, brushing with butter and sprinkling with almond mixture as before. Trim the edges to 1 inch and fold them inward, tucking them down inside the pan. Brush the top with butter and score diagonally with the tip of a sharp knife in two directions, to make diamond-shaped slits in the pastry. Sprinkle the top with water (about 3 tablespoons) and bake for 15 minutes, then lower the heat to 325°F and bake 45 more minutes.
  • When the top is golden brown and flaky, remove from the oven and immediately pour the cooled syrup over the pastry. Let the custard set until cool, then cut into pieces and serve.
  • Semolina
  • Semolina is durum wheat that is more coarsely ground than other flours. It is the primary ingredient in the best pasta and in couscous, and it's also popular as porridge. It gives cakes a heartier, more substantial texture.
