Lentils with Pumpkin
If you were sitting in our family salon right now, I would serve you this. A hearty autumnal stew combining earthy brown lentils with chunks of sweet pumpkin and warm spices. 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.
