🇪🇬 Egypt recipe
Feteer Meshaltet
Feteer Meshaltet is the Egyptian layered pastry, often called the Egyptian pizza by tourists, though it is far more refined. Made by stretching dough paper-thin and folding it with generous amounts of ghee between each layer, it bakes into a towering, flaky, golden masterpiece. It can be served plain, drizzled with honey and cream, or filled with savory cheeses and meats.
