~ HARCHA/ PANCAKES OF SEMOLINA ~

[HOUDA-K]

Do Algerians make/ eat Harcha ? For those who have no idea what I'm talking about then

~ Harcha is a like a hard pancake made of semolina.


Ingredients:

~ 400 g of fine soaked semolina to water
~ 1/ 2 spoonful of salt
~ 50 g of sugar
~ 100 g of softened butter
~ 3/ 4 of a glass of water

Preparation:

Mix the semolina, with salt and sugar then insert the butter. Well mix, knead and wet of some water until getting a dough a little soft.

Shape the pancakes of 1 cm of thickness and cook on soft fire in a dry stove for 5 to 10 mn of each side.

Dead easy to make

Sprinkle a little bit of semolina on the Mekla {pan} before shapeing the pancakes onto the and then cook the Harcha on a slow fire.
