Delicious Moroccan stuffed flatbreads featuring a crispy exterior and a flavorful filling, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 ½ cups warm water
- 3 tablespoons room temperature unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cups cooked, shredded meat (beef, chicken, or your choice)
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: Fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix flour, salt, and sugar. Create a well in the center, and gradually add warm water.
- Mix until a shaggy dough forms and incorporate the butter and oil. Knead until smooth, about 10 minutes. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.
- In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Sauté the onion until translucent. Add garlic, spices, and meat or veggies. Cook until heated through, about 5 minutes.
- Divide the dough into small balls. Roll each ball into thin circles, place a spoonful of filling in the center, fold and seal.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Cook each R’ghayef for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and crispy.
- Serve warm with olive oil or yogurt.
Notes
Customize the filling to your preference. Freezing uncooked flatbreads is recommended for convenience.
