Kefta (Meatball) Tajine
Let me share a family secret with you. Spiced beef or lamb meatballs simmered in a zesty, cumin-laced tomato sauce, often finished with poached eggs. 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.
