  • I tried this recipe and found the baghrir to be very rubbery and the holes didn't form well.

    So, I used 1Tbsp and 1/2 more baking powder and about 5 and 1/4 cups of water to thin it out.

    I let it sit for about 30 minutes.

    I also used little less tan half ladle for each baghrir. The heat would be anywhere between low to medium and each one would cook slowly.

    This recipe created the perfect spongy baghrir that had a "million" holes throughout. It appeared almost transparent yet very fluffy.

  • you are right, you might have to adjust the water quantity based on the quality of semolina you use. If I buy a different brand of semolina, I always have to vary the recipe by 1-2 cups of water.

  • I would love to make these. But I have a few questions. What temperture is the burner? Does the pan have to be non-stick? Are you suppose to flip to cook the other side? Where did you did the pan you have?

  • Hi, they should be cooked on medium heat in a non-stick pan. These Crepes cook on only one side.

  • Not only Moroccan Remember....Alia is showing to people all over the world the great Moroccan Cuisne and the great Moroccan Culture which we're proud of ...are you from ca btw?

  • No worries, I am far from stopping what I do because of negative comments. hearing that one of the video recipes brought back childhood memories or made cooking easy to someone who is so far from home, reminds me why I keep doing what I do... I am far from home and I know what this feels. This is my way to bring a sweet taste of home to people.

    cheers :-)

  • I came to see this video because of your grandma. She is so sweet. i hope she had a good life. So lucky you have your grandma. I miss mine very much.

  • in my country there is a simliar thing (except we don't use any of the ingridiants besides water and salt lol) and it comes out the same exact way.. my mom rubs clarified butter or sesame oil on it while its hot, and then drizzles honey over it.. so its very very similar but the dough is very very different.. pretty cool grandma ;) love the dress you're wearing.. cool hat in the back :) i want one.. lol
