Zlebia or Zlabia (Arabic,زلابية) is a type of pastry eaten in parts of north-west Africa such as Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia and Libya.
Typical ingredients include flour, 1/2 spoon yeast soup, 1½ spoons of yoghurt soup and sugar. This is then mixed with water and commonly two seeds of cardamom (oil for the crackling).[1]
Kairouan in Tunisia is noted for its Zlebia pastries which are sold at the World Heritage Site.
