Baghrir Recipe
The biggest achievement of my visit to Morocco was to meet with baghrir. I don't know how many times I made it after Morocco.
The thing that makes baghrir important is not the consistency or taste, according to me, it's being eggs and diary free. It's a great breakfast for whom have allergies to eggs and diary products.
It's also a good example to one thing I want to shout to all the world; food don't need to be turn brown to be cooked. Baghrir is still has batter colour and it's not brown and it's still cooked. I hate people's burning things trying to cook them. Brown, even black cookies, dried koftes, hard crust bundt cakes... It's the easiest way to blame the recipe for dried foods, but the reason of dried foods is generally overcooking.
Baghriri can be consumed with cheese or honey, jam, molasses and chocolate spread for breakfast. I prefer to use a little salt and a little sugar just to give taste. Cheese is pretty salty, honey or molasses are pretty sugary things, and they don't need anything more salty or sugary beside. But if you think that the crepes should be sugary, you can use only sugar.

- Kevser: I know the crumpets, but they require a round shaped mold I guess. This is free style:) I hope you like them... May 17, 2019 10:33 am
