Steps:
- Steps for making the dough:.
- Mix all the dry ingredients together (flour, semolina, salt, sugar, and yeast).
- Slowly add water and work the dough until you are able to create a ball with the dough.
- If you are kneading the dough by hand, use energetic and quick strokes. Knead for 20 minutes while adding water until you get an elastic dough.
- You can use a kneading machine to speed up the process. Put the dough ball in the machine and automatically knead for the next 10 minutes while adding water.
- Make small balls with the dough (the size of golf balls) and let the dough rest for 20 minutes.
- Note: the amount of water needed depends on the quality of absorption of the flour you are using. the goal is to get at the end an elastic and malleable dough. if your dough is too sticky add some flour; if it is too hard add some water and continue kneading it.
- Steps for folding the Msemmen:.
- Mix the melted butter with the oil.
- Spread some of the oil/butter mixture on a flat surface. Take one dough ball and flatten it with your hands. Gently keep stretching the dough until you get a thin circle of dough. Fold the circle into a square as shown in the video.
- Steps for cooking the Msemmen:.
- Gently spread the dough square with your fingertips until you get a thin dough square.
- On low heat, cook the Msemmen 5-10 minutes in each side.
- Note: the Msemmen is served hot with honey and Moroccan mint tea.

AYAOU M'SEMMEN
This is a Moroccan flaky flat almost crepe like bread. Best eaten warm it is well loved here for breakfast with butter, sugar, honey, cinnamon, ground almonds or a combination of these. As street food it is nearly always delicious and made at home is even better! We also stuff these with sweet mixtures such as roughly ground almonds and sugar or honey and love them stuffed savory with onions, parsley, tomato and if I have any, leftover crumbled Hajar's Zweena Beef Kefta or a combination. The beef is certainly not obiligatory!! Be careful to oil, oil, oil, your hands and surfaces well! I have worn M'semmen many times due to lack of oil. I can still remember the smile on Mohamed's face when I told him that I made m'semmen long before coming to Morocco. For more info, visit the African Forum where I have a column and others make wonderful contributions! c.2005

Steps:
- Make a well in the center of the flour, place the salt in the well and add the water small amounts at a time. Knead well to form a very smooth dough. Using well oiled hands, make balls the size of a tangerine and place them on an oiled surface. Counter top, table, marble block etc.
- Spread out the balls one by one with the palm of your oiled hand stretching the dough gently in all directions until it is very thin.
- Fold in the 4 sides to form a square approximately 3-4 inches in size.
- Cook briefly in a well buttered skillet on both sides until lightly browned.
- Served with honey or sugar these are a wonderful breakfast or snack.
- We also stuff them(occasionally here in Morocco) before folding with sweet mixtures such as ground almonds and sugar or with onions, parsley, and spices; meat can be added as well. We like to stuff them with my precooked kefta (sometimes)but always with onions, parsley and tomato (either a bit of Hajar's Wicked Sauce Tomatish), fresh thinly sliced then diced tomato, pounded tomato or a small bit of tomato concentrate. If stuffing, these are always stuffed thinly, not as bulging pockets.
- The number of servings is an approximation and has to be as no 2 people make them into the exact same sized pieces. Cooking time is for cooking an entire batch.
