Description

Aghroum Lahwal is a traditional Moroccan semolina bread with a golden crust and tender, hearty interior. Perfect with honey, olive oil, or alongside soups and stews, this Amazigh classic brings rustic flavor to every bite.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups Fine Semolina Flour
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 tablespoon Yeast
  • 1¼ cups Warm Water
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Sugar


Instructions

  1. Preheat your skillet or griddle over medium heat.
  2. In a bowl, mix semolina, flour, salt, sugar, and yeast.
  3. Gradually add warm water and olive oil, mixing to form a soft dough.
  4. Form the dough into a thick disc and let it rest for 10–15 minutes.
  5. Lightly oil the skillet and place the dough onto it.
  6. Cover and cook for 6–8 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
  7. Remove from heat and cover with a towel to keep it soft.
  8. Serve warm with olive oil, honey, or your favorite spread.

Notes

  • Use fine semolina for the best texture.
  • Letting the dough rest improves elasticity and flavor.
  • Covering while cooking helps trap steam and soften the inside.
  • Store leftovers wrapped tightly or freeze for later use.
