Moufletas for Mimouna

Posted

Mimouna is a traditional North African celebration marking  the end of Passover. Popularized by Moroccan Jews in Israel, it marks the end of avoiding hametz with moufletas, a type of crepe fried in oil.

At the Dwares Jewish Community Center in Providence, April 23, Israeli shlichah (emissary) Tslil Reichman demonstrated how to make moufletas and everyone had an opportunity to try one of the fried delicacies, delicious with butter and honey or Nutella. There were hamsas to decorate and other crafts, all to a background of Moroccan music
