Palestinian Knafeh recipe by Wafa Shami
PUBLISHED: NOV 22, 2023 BY WAFA SHAMI.
Palestinian knafeh is considered the most traditional and the most iconic dessert perhaps not only in Palestine but also across the Middle East.
Knafeh typically consists of shredded or finely ground dough mixed in ghee or melted butter, layered with stretchy cheese, baked then soaked in sugar syrup (ater).
It is delicious, slightly crunchy on the outside, cheesy, and gooey on the inside, with a unique combination of textures and flavors.

This variation is characterized by its use of white cheese, thin strands of shredded dough, and aromatic sugar syrup. Knafeh Nabulsi is particularly famous and has contributed to the overall reputation of knafeh in the Middle East and beyond.

“On the first day of the war, a friend of mine texted me: ‘What is happening in Gaza?’ I replied: ‘The proper question is not what is happening, but what has been happening, all this time—for more than 75 years.’ We live in a war film, and the director, who is also the producer and the star, does not want it to end. The Hollywood studio behind the film keeps feeding the script with new scenes, keeps adding millions of dollars to the budget. Early screen tests have proven it’s going to be a blockbuster, but only if they keep filming. And never stop.”
