Recipe
Moroccan cuisine is known for its flair and long-established traditions. Surprisingly, even in the age of technology, many people prefer to cook in the old way. Specifically, in earthenware pots and according to recipes that have not changed for dozens of years. In many families, for example, it is common to roll Moroccan paratha exclusively by hand and bake it in a braiser pan.
Not all stores carry durum wheat flour. In a pinch, you can replace it with semolina of the same variety. Many eastern peoples put various fillings between the layers of parathas: spinach, cheese, minced meat, onion. The Moroccan recipe is the simplest, most classic choice.

Grease a plate with vegetable oil. Separate the dough in half. Cut a quarter from one half, roll it into a ball and place it on the plate. Cut the dough remaining from the half into seven equal parts, twist them into balls, and put them on a plate as well. Cover with a film and let sit for 20 minutes. Separately do the same with the second half of the dough. |

Heat vegetable oil in a pan and fry the parathas on both sides over moderate heat until golden brown. |
Moroccan paratha in a skillet turns out airy and layered. It goes great with tea or coffee. Serve with preserves, jam, or condensed milk. And if you like sweets, sprinkle dough layers with sugar during cooking.

Today, while I was at work, my cousin stole my apple ipad and tested to see if it can survive a twenty five foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My iPad is now destroyed and she has 83 views. I know this is totally off topic but I had to share it with someone!
