Um Ali

Ingredients:
- 1 packet of puff pastry
- 1 liter of fresh milk. (I normally use low fat)
- sugar
- nuts and raisins

Method:


1- place the puff pastry pieces in trays and bake them in the oven until they puff into brown golden color.



2- when the pastry is ready, let it cool and then cut in using your fingers into halves and crush them in the Pyrex you are going to use.



3- spread some pistachios as shown in the picture.



4- spread some sugar, it depends on you how sweet you would like you um ali.



5- some raisins and chopped almonds would be great, spread some over the sugar.



6- boil the milk, owns pour 1/2 a liter on the pastry and nuts mixture. You will use the milk gradually for the layers.



7- repeat the above steps for more layers.on the final layer, spread only chopped almonds and place your um ali in the oven for the milk to simmer and to turn golden brown as shown on the below picture.




*option: you can either spread the sugar on every layer of pastry, or add it to the milk when boiling it.
