Ingredients: 6 sheets phyllo dough, thawed; 4 tablespoons clarified butter or ghee, melted; 8 oz ground lamb; 1 cup delicata squash, ½-inch cubes; 2 tablespoons olive oil; 1 medium onion, finely diced; 2 cloves garlic, minced; 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon; ½ teaspoon ground cumin; ¼ teaspoon cayenne; Sea salt and cracked pepper; 3 tablespoons pomegranate molasses; 2 tablespoons tahini; 1 tablespoon lemon juice; 2 tablespoons pomegranate arils; Fresh mint and parsley for garnish

Paper-thin phyllo layers shattered to golden perfection cradle a filling of cinnamon-scented lamb studded with roasted delicata squash, finished with a tart pomegranate-tahini sauce that pools like liquid garnish. Each bite is textural contradiction—fragile shell, warm spice, cool-tart sauce.
