Healthy Sellou (No Butter, No Sugar)
Let me share a family secret with you. A modern, health-conscious version of the traditional energy paste, using olive oil or argan oil and pure honey instead of butter and sugar. 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.
