Recipe:

Ingredients:
2 cups of vermicelli/noodles
2 tablespoons cooking oil
100 g of butter 
cup sugar
2 tablespoons cardamom powder
2 generous pinches of saffron 
4 eggs beaten 
Directions:
In a wide pan, heat  2 tablespoons of cooking oil and add 1/3 of the raw vermicelli. Lightly fry vermicelli until it gets dark, golden brown color. Constantly stir alli with a  spoon,  so it won't burn.  Then add enough water to boil the fried raw vermicelli.Once the water starts to boil, add the  rest of non-fried vermicelli and cook for just 3-4 minutes and then drain. Place back into the pot and add to it  butter, cardamom powder, sugar and saffron. Mix all with the vermicceli and place on a small fire for about 10 min or until the sugar melts. 
Serve vermicelli hot on a large dish. 

Serve with omelet, for that:
Heat about 3 tablespoons cooking oil and then when getting very hot add the beaten eggs. Tip the pan around to spread the uncooked egg. When dry on top, turn the egg omelet over and cook for one minute more and top the vermicelli.

Bel 3afia!
