Bastela

Morocco is very famous by its delicious dishes. One of them is "Bastela", we cook it in the weddings. If you want to cook it here are the ingredients and the way also:

-Sheets of pastry made by water, salt, and flour
-Almonds, fried and ground with sugar
-Chicken fried and torn apart into pieces

We take 4 sheets of bastela pastry, we spread them with oil and butter. We take chicken, add parsley, add spices, then we add 4 other sheets of pastry. We follow the same steps, then we add almonds mixed with sugar and cinnamon, then we put 4 other sheets of pastry, then we close it with our hands and we add oil, eggs (the yolk), we put it in the oven in very low fire. Finally, we decorate it with powdered sugar.

Enjoy eating. It's really the best taste (it's a mix between salty and sweet) that you will ever try.
