Seffa (Template:Lang-ar) is a Maghrebi[1] dish of sweetened semolina cuscus with butter, cinnamon, and almonds.[2] It can also be made with rice or vermicelli.[3][4] This dish is generally consumed at the end of a meal, before dessert. It is often served at traditional marriage ceremonies and family gatherings.
Seffa can also be served with chicken (السفة بالدجاج) or with raisins (السفة الحلوة بالزبيب).[5]
There are also sweetened cuscus dishes besides seffa, such as mesfouf.
