We love experimenting with traditional Fillo Pastry folding techniques to create new desserts. Traditionally, this method of rolling and wrinkling Fillo Pastry is used to make Baklava Saragli.

You can roll them in any nuts you enjoy eating – walnuts, almonds and pistachio nuts are some of our favourites.
