  • Add water and mix until everything is well incorporated, cover and let it rest for 30 minutes.
  • In a skillet set over medium heat, pour 2 tablespoons batter.
  • Cook until the batter has no visible wet spots you will notice bubbles forming on the surface.Do not flip.
  • Complete the batter and cover the cooked Qatayef so it will not get dry.
  • Prepare the Ashta as directed in the above link.
  • Scoop about a teaspoon of the Ashta filling in the middle of the Qatayef.
  • Pinch the edges together sealing them two-thirds of the way. Dip the open side into ground pistachios.
