Mhancha is a sweet coiled "serpentine" pastry made using phyllo dough and almonds. It is an Algero-Ottoman influence.
Mhancha is made using ground almonds or an almond paste or even walnuts. It is made using thin sheets of phyllo dough pastry and is arranged in a spiral, hence its name. It is either fried or baked.
