In a bowl, pour 1 kg of all-purpose flour.

Incorporate 4 tablespoons of ghee into the flour mixture using your fingertips until sandy texture is achieved.

Make a well in the center of the mixture and add 2 eggs.

Gradually pour in 400 to 450 ml of lukewarm water while mixing until a smooth dough forms.

Knead the dough until it is smooth and tender.

Brush the dough with a little ghee, cover, and let it sit for 15-20 minutes.

Divide the dough into two parts, then each part into several medium-sized balls.

Shape each ball into a smooth ball and flatten it.

Brush the surface of the flattened dough with ghee.

Roll one side of the dough inward to the middle, then do the same with the other side to create layers.

Roll the dough into a snail shape.

Flatten the rolled dough into a circle about 20 cm in diameter.

Preheat a pan and place the couscouma on it.

Cook until bubbles appear, then flip and brush with ghee in circular motions.

Cook over medium heat until the desired color is achieved.
