Ousmalieh

Ousmalieh, also spelt as Usmalieh is a scrumptious milk based dessert typical to Lebanon. By definition, it is a milk custard with rich, butter-toasted kataifi (shredded) pastry and drizzled with rose-flavoured syrup. Like all middle-eastern desserts it's topped with a whole lot of chopped pistachios.

We enjoyed it as much as we did the Baklava. I would love to find a store in Atlanta that sold it....Costco you think ? :-)
