Critical Success Points

  • Fry the almonds until they reach a golden color without burning.
  • Properly seal the filo edges to prevent them from bursting during baking.
  • Do not overload the rolls to prevent the filo from tearing.

Safety Warnings

  • Frying oil is very hot; handle with care to avoid burns.
  • The oven reaches 180 °C; wear kitchen gloves when handling trays.
  • Hot honey can splash; keep children away.
