in #food7 years ago (edited)

Pastilla is a traditional dish from the Maghreb, made of a sort of laminated ("leaf" which is called ouarka, close to that of brik), with onion, pigeon (or chicken, guinea fowl, or more recently, seafood), parsley, coriander, boiled egg and almonds, a mixture of sweet and salty, flavored with cinnamon. It is often served at parties, just before the main course

The term "pastilla" is a word of Spanish origin, derived from the pastel term ("cake" or "pie" in French). It was during the fall of Al-Andalus in 1492 that the Moorish refugees brought with them, in North Africa, a multitude of recipes including pastilla. Pigeon and almond pastilla is often referred to as a recipe from Al-Andalus. She uses refined poultry such as pigeon, quail, partridge and the dove.

These images do make your mouth water, well especially mine as I love seafood, and cannot resist prawns. Every time I'm in Florida I visit the Red Lobster several times where we have as much crab claws lobster and prawns and all for a fixed price, and believe you me I get my moneys worth. Just can't help myself when it comes to seafood. Thank you for sharing. P.S. I'm gutted I have no prawns in to make a meal with. Guess I will have to settle for a tin of salmon Take care @racykacy
