Steps

1To begin making Kunafa With Mango Cottage Cheese Cream Recipe, start by making the Syrup and the mango Cream.
2Make sugar syrup by boiling water and sugar. When the sugar has dissolved, boil for 3 to 4 minutes and switch off the flame and add lemon juice. Add in Saffron strands and rose water to the sugar syrup. Set aside to cool completely.
3With the help of hand blender, blend together all the ingredients listed under *for the Mango Cream till very well combined and keep this Icing in the Fridge.
4Preheat the oven at 180 degree Celsius for 15 minutes.
5In the meanwhile, prepare the dough by loosening kataifi dough in a large bowl.
6Melt the butter and add this to the kataifi dough slowly, while breaking and separating its strands.
7Add in the sugar and rose water to the kataifi to mix thoroughly, to get kunafa dough.
8Grease the dish in which you want to bake the kunafa for Kunafa With Mango Cottage Cheese Cream Recipe. Spread a layer of the prepared kunafa dough. Press it a little bit and spread some more dough.
9I wanted a Crescent Moon shape so I took dough and arranged it in a spring form pan in crescent moon and star shape. I also used 2 more spring form pans for utilizing the rest of the dough.
10Put the prepared pans in the preheated oven and let the kunafa bake at 180 degree Celsius for about 20-25 minutes or until lightly golden in color. The bottom side will be more golden brown when you flip it.
11Immediately pour cold sugar syrup evenly over the hot kunafa. Let it cool completely at room temperature. Invert onto a serving plate.
12When it is completely cooled put sufficient Mango Cream on the Kunafa. Garnish with Crushed Pistachios and Rose petals.
13Serve Kunafa With Mango Cottage Cheese Cream as a desert along with a meal of Foxtail Millet Pilaf, Delicious Spinach Falafels and Okra Bamia.
