About this episode

Janelle Halil and her mother Aisha share a traditional baklava recipe for Mother's Day.

Janelle Halil, MKR contestant and owner of Sassy Sprinkles, and her mother Aisha demonstrate how to make traditional rolled baklava using phyllo pastry, ground walnuts, butter, orange zest and cinnamon. The recipe features a clever technique using a wooden dowel from Bunnings to create perfectly tight rolls with iconic ripples, finished with a cold sugar syrup poured over the hot baked pastry.
