Eggs with Khlii
If you were sitting in our family salon right now, I would serve you this. The ultimate indulgent Moroccan breakfast: eggs fried in the savory, spiced fat of Khlii, topped with chunks of the preserved meat. 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.
