Instructions

  1. Mix the semolina, flour, yeast, sugar and salt in a bowl.
  2. Gradually whisk in the lukewarm water to get a smooth, lump-free batter.
  3. Let it rest for 1 hour at lukewarm temperature, until the batter forms bubbles on the surface.
  4. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat, without any fat, and pour in a ladleful of batter.
  5. Cook without flipping, until the whole surface is covered in small holes and the top is no longer wet.
  6. Stack the beghrir and serve them warm with melted butter and honey.

Variations and tips

Vegan version. Beghrir are already vegan if you serve them with olive oil instead of butter.
