Green Split Pea Bissara

Community Feedback

Let me share a family secret with you. A vibrant green variation of the classic Bissara, made with green split peas instead of fava beans, offering a slightly sweeter flavor. Rooted deeply in our Berber and Andalusian heritage, this is more than just a dish—it's a story told through spices. Trust me, you'll need plenty of crusty bread to soak up every last drop.
