Baklava is a sweet pastry made with layers of phyllo dough, nuts, and honey syrup. It is a popular dessert in many Middle Eastern and Mediterranean countries. The phyllo dough is layered with a mixture of finely chopped nuts, such as walnuts or pistachios, and then baked until golden and crispy. Once baked, a sweet syrup made with honey, sugar, and lemon juice is poured over the hot pastry, allowing it to soak in and create a sticky and sweet dessert. Baklava is a rich and indulgent treat that is perfect for special occasions or as a sweet ending to a meal.
