Fish Meatball Tagine

Community Feedback

If you were sitting in our family salon right now, I would serve you this. A lighter alternative to beef kefta. Delicate white fish shaped into balls and cooked in an aromatic tomato sauce. 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.
