What is the secret to a perfect Seafood Bastilla?
Begin by sautéing your fresh seafood lightly with bold chermoula and a fierce touch of harissa.
Soak the vermicelli until tender, then drain and chop. Mix it intimately with the spiced seafood and golden sautéed mushrooms.
Butter your warqa pastry leaves generously. Wrap the abundant filling tightly within layers of this delicate dough.
Bake in a hot oven until the crust shatters upon touch, golden brown and radiating with coastal aromas.
