Amlou
The spread of the Agadir and Souss region: roasted almonds ground with argan oil and honey, spread on bread or msemen for breakfast.
Ingredients
- 250 g raw skin-on almonds
- 120 ml argan oil (or a mild olive oil with a few drops of walnut oil)
- 4 tablespoons of honey
- A pinch of salt
How to make it at home
- Roast the almonds in the oven at 180 °C for about 10 minutes, until fragrant.
- Blitz them in a food processor until they release their oil and form a paste.
- Add the honey and salt, then the oil little by little, still blending.
- Keep it in a glass jar and serve with bread or flatbreads.
The trick: Use culinary (roasted) argan oil, not the cosmetic kind.
