Directions
Moroccan Flat Bread, Its not often that you see women cooking on the street in North Africa unless they are making this bread They stand behind large flat griddles on which they cook the bread, flattening it further with their fingers, not seeming to mind the heat Some occasionally dip their fingers in a small bowl of oil to drizzle on the bread while it is cooking this slightly greasier version is definitely better Courtesy Anissa Helou , Yummy as a side with our lentil soup After dividing the dough into 4 balls, I let the it rest about ten mins , it made it easier to flatten I also sauteed the onion and added a few other spices These would be delicious with all kinds of fillings Thanks for posting the recipe, , A great bread recipe if you’re craving a bread fix quickly Love how easy this is to make and the fact that you don’t need an oven (something we don’t have at our disposal just now) I also love how easily you can vary the flavours to individual tastes We did find that the onions didn’t quite cook enough and we’d lightly saute them first next time
