Butter and layer the sheets

Lay one of the baklava filo sheets on the work surface, brush it with melted butter and cover it with the second sheet.

Add kaymak and pistachios

Spread pieces of kaymak in the centre of the pastry, then sprinkle over plenty of ground pistachios and the granulated sugar.

Fold into an envelope

Fold the edges of the pastry inwards into an envelope shape, brushing lightly with butter at each fold.

Heat the pan

Heat a large frying pan or saj griddle and add a very small amount of butter.

Cook until golden

Transfer the katmer to the pan, cook both sides over medium heat until deep golden brown and serve hot.

Time's up! Enjoy your meal.
