Recipe

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.

Brussels sprouts actually need very little to be delicious. But still, it’s nice to give a beautiful stage to this vegetable. And they get that in this dish. Truly so. Almost wanting to eat them with your hands.
