Recipe

Broad beans are widely used in the Middle East. And I think that’s a very good plan. Broad beans are delicious in taste, in texture, in color. Hero’s. Also in this surprising salad on a bed of tomato coulis.

Soup the way soup should be. Very full of flavour, creamy, with a bite, filled but not too filled, tastes like more, but one cup is also enough. A soup you crave for once you’ve eaten it.

We ate this pastilla in Morocco when we were visiting our Moroccan friends in Tamraght. Fati had made this pastilla and I immediately asked her for the recipe. So delicious. It is a typical Moroccan dish that is served in many guises. But this one stands head and shoulders above the rest.

As tasty as it looks on this spoon, it is. Sweet from the paprika, spicy from the red pepper, fresh from the mint. Delicious with a sandwich as a dip.
