Hi Alia,
I love your recipes!
I was a bit confused on this one, as you have "garlic" listed on the site, but I am not seeing it in the video.
Should I add or not garlic? :)
Thank you!
Great recipe, so easy and tasty.. Cristina - there is minced garlic in the video, on the spice dish :)
I just maid this for my family. Turned out fantastic. This quantity is good for only 2 not three!
This recipe reminds me of the summers I've spent in Morocco. I appreciate your website so much as I can recreate the dishes my adoptive Moroccan family cooked for me while I lived with them. Thank you so much for helping me be a better cook!
