Znoud el Sit

"Znoud el Sit" is a popular Lebanese dessert that translates to "Lady's Arms" in English. These delicate pastries are made by wrapping thin layers of pastry dough around a creamy filling, often made with kashta (clotted cream), and then deep-frying them to a golden perfection. After frying, they are dipped in a fragrant sugar syrup and sometimes sprinkled with crushed pistachios for added flavor and texture. Znoud el Sit is known for its crisp exterior and rich, creamy interior, making it a delightful treat in Lebanese cuisine.
