Hello everyone!
This is the first time I am participating in the Steemit Culinary Challenge! I knew about this contest for some time now as my husband is a frequent contestant! As this week he will not be participating due to time constraint, therefore I took this opportunity and try it for the first time!
Steemit Culinary Challenge is an amazing cooking contest with different theme each week! This contest is orchestrated by @woman-onthe-wing and it is already to it's 42nd round! This week the theme is BREAD and the guest judge the wonderful @jaymorebeet who is actually a master in bread making!
I eat a lot of bread and bread forms an important part in the eating habits of all Moroccans! I cook my own bread nearly every day and one that I love a lot is the Moroccan Batbout! I have used Batbout many times before to create some amazing sandwiches but I have never shown how to make it!
So let's follow me and i'll show you how to make this easy and yummy bread!
MOROCCAN BATBOUT
You simply need the following to make them(6 breads) :
- Flour 500gms
- Salt 1 tsp
- Yeast 1tbsp
- Semolina 15gms
- Warm water
Make the dough with the flour, salt, yeast and water, till you get a soft bread dough! Sprinkle with little semolina.
Make 6 small balls from the dough! Put them on a tray where you again put some semolina!
Using your messy hand, press the balls to the below form!
Put them back on the tray and cover.
Let it sit for approx. 1 hour.
After 1 hour, heat a pan and start cooking your batbouts directly on the hot pan! Don't add anything on the pan!
Each 30 seconds turn the batbout on the other side! You will see how it develops...
After couple of minutes, the batbout will inflate like a pillow and you know it's ready!
One of the rule of the contest is to show how it looks in the inside!
Here it is!
A very soft bread which you can keep for several days in the fridge!
What is great with batbout is that you already get it open like that, not need to cut to stuff it!
So here you are with my entry to this amazing contest! I hope you enjoyed the recipe and will try it too!
