Malsouka (Arabic: ملسوقة, also malsouqa) or warqa (Arabic: ورقة), also known as brik sheets (Arabic: ورق البريك, French: feuilles de brick) or bourek sheets (ورق البوراك) or dioul (Arabic: ديول), is a Maghrebi pastry sheet that resembles filo.[1][2][3][4] It is thicker than filo[2] and unlike filo[3] is created by spreading wafer-thin layers of batter on a heated pan rather than by rolling a raw dough.[citation needed]
There are many applications for the dough, including the tagine malsouka, the pastilla, the samsa, the brik,[5] the baklava.
