Kataif is a type of Arabic Pancake which is cooked on one side stuffed with cheese or nuts, deep fried n soaked in sugar syrup n served. They can also be stuffed with cream n served with sugar syrup, known as Kataif bil Kashta. These pancakes can be made at home and as told cooked only on one side so that they can be stuffed n pinch them well to keep the stuff intact. Since living in Gulf Kataif is easily available in supermarkets n I made them with these ready made ones. For Calorie conscious ones you can bake them n drizzle with syrup and nuts. To make the kataifs at home look in to Arabic Food Blogspot and find the recipe
here. This is an amazing blogspot were you can find a whole lot of Arabic recipes.
Today I made kataif with two types of cheese, Akawi n Mozerella Cheese. They have to be had hot to enjoy the complete taste. Sending them to AWED- KSA guest hosted here event by DK
