Vegan Kunafa

Vegan dessert

A sweet dessert with mozzarella — sounds cheesy, right? VANOZZA's plant-based mozzarella shines in any meal, even dessert! This vegan take on the beloved Middle Eastern classic with its crispy kadaifi crust is a true showstopper.

Ingredients

Main ingredients

  • 100 g vegan mozzarella from VANOZZA
  • 100 g kadaifi (angel hair pastry threads)
  • 30 g vegan butter alternative (e.g. Alsan)

For the syrup

  • 50 g sugar
  • 50 ml water
  • 1 green cardamom pod
  • 1 black cardamom pod
  • ½ vanilla bean
  • 1 chili thread

Instructions

  1. 1

    Dissolve the sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Crack the cardamom pods open with a gentle tap. Add the cardamom, vanilla bean, and chili thread. Keep simmering over low heat for the best flavor.

  2. 2

    Cut the mozzarella into thick slices and wrap them in the kadaifi pastry threads.

  3. 3

    Melt the vegan butter in a hot pan. Fry the kunafa until golden brown on both sides. Deglaze with the sugar syrup, arrange on a plate, and drizzle the remaining syrup on top.
