Qrashel
Qrashel or Krachel (Moroccan Arabic: قراشل) or Lgorss (Moroccan Arabic: لڭرص) are Moroccan traditional sweet sesame rolls, made with anise and fennel. They can be served with tea or coffee, and dipped in cheese, olive oil, jam or honey. The rolls are similar to French brioche, but the anise seeds give them an extra flavor.
