Whisk the semolina and sugar with the eggs until smooth.
Add the hot milk gradually to the egg mixture so the cream does not curdle.
Cook the cream for 7 minutes until thickened.
Boil the sugar, water, and lemon for 10 minutes to prepare the syrup.
Spread the cream over the buttered yufka layers and close the top.
Bake the dessert in a 190°C oven for 30 minutes and combine with warm syrup.
After it absorbs the syrup, lift out the slices without crushing the yufka layers.
💡 Tip: Pouring the syrup over the warm dessert protects the layers.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Slice and serve warm; sprinkling cinnamon on top is enough.
