Leksour

What we know so far

Leksour is a plate of thin millet and wheat pancakes with a lamb and vegetable stew spooned over the top so the pancakes drink up the broth. It comes from the north of Mauritania and is eaten across the country, by hand, from a shared dish. The stew is a simple one: lamb browned with carrots, potatoes, tomatoes and peppers, simmered in water with a bay leaf. The pancakes are the point.

What claiming it means

1. Cook it the way you actually make it. Change anything in our draft that is wrong, and most of it probably is.
2. Photograph your own, so the page carries a real picture instead of somebody else's.
3. Send it in. An editor reads it, and it publishes with your name on it and a link to your profile.
