The lunch






Tangine with mutton, almonds, onion, and egg. Typical for weddings and baptisms.
Moroccan mint tea and all the fab moroccan cookies with alminds, wanuts, rose water, etc!

Bastela or Pastilla...My favorite!




This is a starter dish made by layering a special dough called ouarka which is very paper thin like filo dough. It has a chicken mixture withy parsely, onions, eggs, cinnamon, saffron, and then a layer of roasted ground almonds. It is then topped with honey and a little more almonds. So good!
