Buttery filo pastry is a staple of Turkish cuisine. For this recipe, we've stuffed and rolled the filo with gooey melted chocolate. Finish with a dusting of cinnamon sugar and chopped pistachios for a rich, spiced and deliciously decadent take on a Turkish dessert.

Boxes and ingredients are packed in facilities that handles Peanut, Nuts, Sesame, Fish, Crustaceans, Milk, Egg, Mustard, Celery, Soya, Gluten and Sulphites. Due to the war in Ukraine, it has been necessary to substitute sunflower oil with rapeseed oil in some products without a label change. The FSA have advised that allergic reactions to rapeseed oil are rare.
