What to do:
In a pan over a medium heat, add the butter, saffron powder and saffron strands. Reduce the heat to very low, then add the first layer of Kunafa dough and press it down.
Add the mozzarella cheese, either sliced or grated, and cover with another layer of Kunafa dough, pressing it down. Mix the chopped California walnuts with melted butter and drizzle on top of the Kunafa.
Now cover with the third layer of Kunafa dough. Cook for about 5 minutes, then cover with another pan and flip it over to cook the top for a further 5 minutes.
