Hi everyone!
I'm going to London today! I'm not taking my laptop with me, so probably won't have the access to the Internet. If I find a computer in the hotel I'll blog from there, if not I'll share with you some pictures when I come back.
Hope I'll have a good time as I'm going alone. Take care everyone!

Recipe | Karan (Moroccan/Algerian fast food)
Karan (in Morocco), or Karantita (in Algeria) is a street food that I personally know from North-Eastern part of Morocco (Oujda), but it's available also in Northern parts (Tanger area). Nowhere else in Morocco. You can also find it in the streets of Algeria, but I'm not sure if in the whole Algeria, or only Western areas.
People make it also at home, so did I.
What you'll need?
- 0,5 kg of chickpea powder (ground dried chickpeas)
- 1,5 liters of water
- 1 glass of oil
- 1 egg
- salt (as much as you like)

In Morocco, they serve it in bread. I had it in a roll. :)
You can add also powdered cumin on top. It's very delicious!!!
