Directions
Moroccan Shrimp Briwats (Like Egg Rolls), In Morocco, briwats can be stuffed with sweet or savory fillings This is a savory filling that is somewhat modern in origin This recipe is an adaptation of both my Moroccan mother-in-law’s version (though she adds garlic) and a recipe found in the book Cooking at the Kasbah by Kitty Norse Some people also add soy sauce to the mixture (a sure sign of the recipe’s modernity; soy sauce, as you can imagine, is not native to Morocco!) 🙂 These are yummy snacks and surprisingly light, despite being fried Do try to find the lumpia wrappers–briwats should not be doughy, but instead light and crispy, and the lumpia wrappers do the job nicely , I made this recipe to bring to a party and everyone who likes shrimp enjoyed it used phyllo dough to wrap them in and shaped them like egg rolls used Asian rice noodles instead of rice vermicelli They are time consuming, so if you think you are going to like them, make more than one recipe at a time I froze them first and they came out just perfect I allowed them to thaw, then I baked them in a greased pan for 15 minutes at 350 degrees F , I made this recipe to bring to a party and everyone who likes shrimp enjoyed it used phyllo dough to wrap them in and shaped them like egg rolls used Asian rice noodles instead of rice vermicelli They are time consuming, so if you think you are going to like them, make more than one recipe at a time I froze them first and they came out just perfect I allowed them to thaw, then I baked them in a greased pan for 15 minutes at 350 degrees F
