Knead the flour, eggs, milk, vegetable oil, vinegar, and salt into a smooth dough.
Rest the dough for 20 minutes so the sheets do not tear while rolling.
Boil the sugar and water for 12 minutes, add the lemon juice, and cool the syrup.
Roll the dough balls into thin sheets with cornstarch.
Sprinkle the sheets with walnuts and sesame seeds, pleat them around a rolling pin, and arrange them on a tray.
Drizzle melted butter over them and brown in a 180°C oven for 35 minutes.
Pour the cold syrup over the hot dessert and rest uncovered for 30 minutes so the layers do not turn doughy.
💡 Tip: Rolling the pastry sheets thinly with starch keeps the pleated layers from sticking together in the oven.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: After it absorbs the syrup, serve at room temperature sprinkled with sesame seeds and walnuts.
