Eid morning starts with semai, then everyone heads to the Eid gah.
Eid-ul-Fitr
In some villages it’s called Semai Eid.
Eid-ul-Fitr in Bangladesh starts at the shemai pot. Before the family walks to the Eid gah, breakfast is a bowl of semai, and in some rural areas the festival is simply known as Semai Eid.
Through the rest of the day it's what gets offered to every guest who comes to the door. Alpha Laccha Semai is made for that one fixed moment in the calendar, and for every craving in between.
Inside
What makes it laccha
01
Layered strands
The dough is stretched, folded and oiled again and again until it separates into hair-fine threads.
02
Roasted golden
Already roasted, so it goes straight into the pan with no dry-frying step.
03
Nothing fancy
Wheat flour and edible oil. The flavour comes from what you cook it in.
The making
How laccha is made
01
A firm dough
Wheat flour and water kneaded into a stiff dough.
02
Stretch & fold
Stretched, folded and soaked in oil — nine to twelve times over.
03
Fry
Fried on a medium flame and shaken apart into loose threads.
04
Nest & seal
Cooled, nested into rounds and sealed to keep them whole.
On the table
Four ways to serve it
01
Dudh semai
Simmer milk with cardamom, cinnamon and a bay leaf. Sweeten, add semai for the last few minutes, and finish with raisins and nuts.
02
Dry semai in ghee
Rub the strands with ghee, warm until fragrant, then add a light sugar syrup with saffron. Top with almonds and pistachio.
03
Semai with mawa
Layer buttered semai with sweetened mawa or ricotta and cream for a richer Eid dessert.
04
A crunchy finish
Crumble a little roasted semai over firni or kheer for texture.
