Pistachio-stuffed taş kadayıf is a Turkish syrup-soaked pastry made from small rounds of batter. Each round is filled with pistachios, folded closed, fried, and traditionally dipped in syrup.
Cook the batter in small rounds on a pan, leaving one side uncooked so the surface stays tacky. Add pistachio filling, fold each round shut, seal the edges, fry, then soak the pastries in syrup.
Pistachio-stuffed taş kadayıf starts as a soft, pancake-like batter round that is filled and folded. Kataifi is made with fine strands of shredded pastry, which are layered or wrapped around a filling.
Traditional pistachio-stuffed taş kadayıf is fried before being soaked in syrup. You can bake it at home as a lighter variation, but it will not have quite the same crisp exterior or traditional texture.
Pistachio-stuffed taş kadayıf can open if the filling touches the edge or the seam is not sealed firmly. Keep the filling in the center, press the edges together well, and turn the pastries gently in the oil.
Pistachio-stuffed taş kadayıf tastes sweet and syrupy, with a soft, chewy center and a lightly crisp fried exterior. The pistachio filling adds a nutty flavor and texture that distinguishes it from unfilled syrup pastries.
Pistachio-stuffed taş kadayıf is a traditional Turkish dessert. It belongs to the family of syrup-soaked kadayıf sweets, with a distinctive folded, batter-based shape rather than the shredded pastry used in tel kadayıf.
Serve pistachio-stuffed taş kadayıf after it has had time to absorb the syrup, usually at room temperature. A sprinkle of crushed pistachios is a common finish; unsweetened tea or coffee balances its sweetness.
Keep pistachio-stuffed taş kadayıf covered in the refrigerator and eat it within a few days. The syrup gradually softens the pastry, so it is at its best soon after preparation.
Yes, you can freeze pistachio-stuffed taş kadayıf, though the pastry may soften after thawing. Freeze the pieces separately before packing them in an airtight container, then thaw them in the refrigerator.

Pistachio-Stuffed Taş Kadayif is a traditional Turkish dessert made by filling a soft, round piece of batter with pistachios and folding it into a half-moon. The pastry is cooked on a griddle, then commonly fried and dipped in syrup. It has a tender centre, a lightly crisp exterior and a rich sweetness, with the pistachio adding a toasty, nutty note.
In Turkey it is served with tea or as a dessert after a meal, and is especially welcome at iftar during Ramadan. The syrup and pastry make it a carbohydrate- and energy-rich sweet; pistachios contribute some protein and fibre. A smaller piece with unsweetened tea makes a more modest serving.
