moroccan msemmen. recipe from a moroccan or one with moroccan relative?

*RE* f asked:


.. i have been married to a moroccan man for 2 years now. and i have learned so many recipes but one i have tried and failed so so so many times is msemmen. his mother came when i had my baby and taught me so many recipes but one she didnt have a chance to practice with me on is msemmen. my husband of course loves the stuff. but every single time even though i am copying what i saw my mother in law do, it stays flat and ends up almost being like a chip before it is cooked. it isnt easy pull apart layers that puff up as soon as you get it in the pan. its flat and hard. i really need help if anyone knows exactly the steps and recipe for this i would appriciate it . all online recipes say use only flour and water and i know for sure thats not right. please help!!!
