Steps

1 hour
  1. 1

    Place the seffa (fine couscous or noodles) in a large bowl. Wash it well, then tilt the bowl to drain and let it dry thoroughly. Once dry, rub it between your hands to separate the grains, then add the oil and mix well to coat. Steam for the first time.

    After steaming, fluff the seffa well with a wooden spoon. Sprinkle water over it in batches while it's still hot, then add salt and mix thoroughly. Let it absorb the water for about 20 minutes.

  3. 3

    Steam the seffa a second time. After steaming, transfer it back to the bowl and fluff again, sprinkling more water in batches. Let it soften and absorb the moisture. In the same steamer, place the raisins at the bottom (it's best if they're small and already cleaned and washed), then add the seffa on top and steam for the final time.
