It all started during eid el fitr sallah celebration when my mom prepared it and shared it among our neighbours, i quietly enjoyed mom masa but i neva think of making it myself untill when one of our neighbour came into our house asking my mom of her masa's recipe saying that her husband and children enjoyed mum's masa so much so that they asked her to make it for them but when she did they complained it's not as soft and nice as my mums masa, thats when i get interest in making masa myself too though mums masa is the best!
