Turkish Baklava

Finely chop the walnuts and pistachios. Mix together in a bowl.

Layer phyllo sheets in a buttered baking dish, brushing each sheet with melted butter.

Sprinkle nut mixture between every 3-4 phyllo layers, continuing until all ingredients are used.

Using a sharp knife, cut the baklava into diamond or square shapes before baking.

Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 45 minutes until golden brown and crispy.

Combine sugar, water, honey, cinnamon stick and cloves. Bring to a boil and simmer for 10 minutes.

Pour hot syrup over hot baklava immediately after removing from oven. Allow to cool completely before serving.
