I’ve tried a recipe for the stuff used in baklava and it requires more patience and finesse than I possess. Line the tin with a sheet of filo, brush with melted butter and repeat with five more sheets, buttering them as you go. Bake for about an hour, until richly golden on top, turning the baklava around halfway through, so it colours evenly. 9 Drench in syrup, bake again, then coolRemove the from the oven and turn up the heat to 200C (180C fan)/390F/gas 6. Pour the syrup over the top of the baklava, especially along the pre-cut lines, and return to the oven for five minutes.
