Moroccan msemen
A square, flaky Moroccan flatbread made with flour, semolina and thinly stretched, folded layers of dough. Makes 6.
This version of msemen combines wheat flour and fine semolina. The dough is stretched very thin, folded into squares and cooked in a pan until golden. Enjoy it freshly made, plain or with honey.
