O que vocês chamam de queijo macio em água?
My Egyptian grandma makes this but no cheese. That’s diabolical.
So you waited a whole year to share this! ?
Selfish
😅🧡🧡🧡🧡 but thank you!!! I’ve been wanting to make this myself
Is it ok to refrigerate the leftover kanafa?
Want to make it soon
Isn't that kind of like ghewar?
Simple yet delicious
Why adding icing sugar when you spread syrup at the end of cooking.😳

Woww😍😍
Looks amazing ❤️❤️
Kunafah was originated in ancient Egypt, and btw the word 'kunafah' is an Egyptian word that comes from the ancient Egyptian language and there's multiple kunafah recipes in the Egyptian cuisine like the kunafah with milk recipe ' you can find it only in Egypt'
❤
It's not supposed to be mozzarella cheese!
You have to use milk, thickened one with condensed milk
What is the baking process?
Are you sure baking time is 55 mns 😮😮😮
It's knafeh not kunafa
This is an insult to my culture and heritage.
Yum
