Recipe for Ana, Briouattes bel kefta

Pictures are to  come....

Morrocan Briouattes are triangles of brick with meat or cheese inside, close to the samoussa. It is very easy and fun to make, you only need geometric skills to fold them.

That makes 40 briouattes, you can divide to make less.

500g of ground steak

Two oignons

A big bunch of coriander

A little cinnamon

Salt, pepper

3 eggs

2 cloves of garlic

20 sheets of brick

Oil ( to fry)

Cut the oignons, the coriander and the garlic small, mix with the meat, salt and pepper, and the eggs. 

Now cut the bricks sheets in two so you have half of a circle. Fold the long side and the small side of your half circle to the middle, like you would do for a letter to put in an envelope. Take a little meat and put on one side of the brick strip. Fold the end of the strip on the meat to make a triangle. Fold the rest of the strip at right angles to the end. Put the extremity of the brick strip inside the last fold, like an enveloppe. Fry the briouattes in a frying pan with a little oil. Everybody liked it very much.
