Preparation


Ball-shaped lumps of dough are placed in an oven, traditionally with a wooden ladle with a long handle referred to as maghrafa (Egyptian Arabic: مغرفة), and then flattened with the bottom side of it. The loaf is removed when it turns brown and crusty.[1]


Consumption


In the countryside farmers often eat it with various types of soft white cheeses as a light meal between breakfast and dinner.[2]
