Darina Allen: Claudia Roden’s Konafa with a Cream Filling

I spent a few days recently on a nostalgic trip down memory lane, I taught a course here at the Cookery School entitled ‘A Taste of Istanbul’. 

It coincided with the coup and subsequent unrest in Turkey so for me it was a bitter-sweet experience.

The course was inspired by the delicious food we ate on our trip to Istanbul last year.
