Step-by-step instructions

1

Melt white chocolate carefully

Place white chocolate in a heatproof bowl over barely simmering water. Stir frequently and remove from heat once melted — white chocolate is sensitive to heat.

2

Prepare kataifi filling

Toast kataifi in butter until golden. Mix with pistachio cream and optional rose water. The rose water adds a subtle Middle Eastern floral note that pairs beautifully.

3

Create the shell

Pour white chocolate into bar molds to coat the base and sides. Refrigerate 5–8 minutes until firm.

4

Add filling

Spoon the pistachio-kataifi mixture into each shell, pressing gently to fill evenly.

5

Seal and decorate

Pour remaining white chocolate over the filling to seal. While still wet, sprinkle crushed pistachios along the top for visual impact.

6

Set and serve

Chill for 1–2 hours. Unmold and serve on a slate board for an elegant presentation.

💡 Dubai Bar tip: White chocolate scorches easily — melt it gently at low heat, never above 45°C. Stir constantly and remove from the bain-marie as soon as it melts.
