Baklava is a rich, sweet pastry found in many cuisines of the Middle East, the Balkans and South Asia and developed as an Ottoman cuisine. It is made of chopped nuts, usually walnuts or pistachios, layered with phyllo pastry, sweetened with sugar or honey syrup. The history of baklava, like that of many other foods, is not well documented. Though it has been claimed by many ethnic groups, the best evidence is that it is of Central Asian Turkic origin, but its current form was developed in the imperial kitchens of the Topkapi Palace. I hope the rest can be figured out from the pictures below:
