Kefta Cigars
Let me share a family secret with you. Spiced ground meat rolled into long, thin pastry cylinders (cigars), deep-fried until crunchy. 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.
