In this video, we’re making Seffa, a traditional Moroccan sweet-and-savory dish featuring fluffy angel hair pasta with tender saffron chicken, caramelized onions, plump raisins, and almonds. Seffa (also known as Seffa Medfouna when the meat is “buried” inside) is an impressive Moroccan dish often served at celebrations and family gatherings.

You'll learn step-by-step how to steam and fluff the angel-hair pasta (chaariya) multiple times to achieve a light, non-sticky texture, and how to cook a flavorful chicken with aromatic spices like ginger, turmeric, saffron, and cinnamon. We’ll also show you how to prepare naturally sweet caramelized onions and raisins, then assemble everything with a dusting of powdered sugar, ground cinnamon, and crunchy almonds on top for a beautiful presentation.

Ingredients:
Angel Hair Pasta (Chaariya): ~500 g (about 1 lb), preferably a Moroccan brand
Vegetable Oil: 50 ml (for coating the pasta) + 2 tbsp (for cooking the chicken)
