Pour remaining butter over the top. Cut into diamond or square shapes, making sure to cut right through to the base.
Bake for 20 – 25 minutes or until the Goulash is puffed and lightly golden on top. Remove Baklava from oven and pour the cooled syrup over the hot Baklava.
Leave to cool before cutting along the diagonals again to remove from the tray.
