1. To make the filling:.

2. Mix corn flour gradually with milk and sugar then bring it to boil in a medium sized, heavy bottomed pan.

3. Stir continually until the mixture thickens, add the remaining ingredients & remove from heat. Spoon mixture into a bowl & refrigerate until cold.

4. To make the dough:.

5. Mix all the ingredients and allow to sit for 30-40 minutes.

6. Ladle approximately 2 tablespoons of the mixture at a time onto a lightly greased, hot frying pan / skillet & cook until full of bubbles - only cook ONE side.

7. After cooking all of the pancakes, let them cool a little.

8. To assemble, gently fold in half & pinch the bottom half edge together - so that you have an opening to place the cream but the rest is sealed.

9. Using a piping bag, fill each pancake with the cooled cream (ishta), before dipping the open ends in the chopped pistachios.
