Moroccan Baghrir By kevin: Silk Road Recipe
It is one of the renowned Moroccan dishes that many generations have passed on for a long time. It is characterized by the simplicity of its ingredients and the fluffiness of its texture. Baghrir is found on every table during Iftar in the holy month of Ramadan.
Baghrir is a simple meal that doesn’t require a lot of time and effort to make. Use these simple ingredients, along with the following steps.
Ingredients
1 cup of fine semolina
Half a cup of plain flour
Two teaspoons of baking powder
A small spoonful of active-dry yeast
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon sugar.
Two cups of warm water
How to prepare:
Put all the ingredients; flour, semolina, water, sugar, and salt except for baking powder in a blender, and mix well until the ingredients are combined.
Add baking powder and run the blender again on medium speed.
Pour the mixture into a bowl, cover with a clean towel or plastic wrap, and leave it in a warm place for 30 minutes.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat, and grease it with a little oil. Stir the dough, then pour ¼ cup of the dough into the pan. When bubbles appear on the top side and it dries out, it is cooked. You don’t need to flip it.
Repeat the previous steps with the rest of the dough. Do not place the Baghrir on top of each other, otherwise, they will become sticky. Place them separately on a clean kitchen towel.
