Pastilla, also known as Bastilla, is a traditional Moroccan pastry that blends sweet and savory flavors. Typically served as an appetizer or special occasion dish, this flaky pie is crafted with layers of thin, crispy warqa dough (similar to phyllo), filled with spiced poultry such as pigeon or chicken, eggs, almonds, and a mix of fragrant spices like cinnamon, saffron, and ginger. The top is often sprinkled with powdered sugar and cinnamon, creating a delicate balance of flavors. While Pastilla is rich in protein from the meat and eggs, its dough and sugary topping increase caloric content, making it a relatively indulgent dish. Almonds provide healthy fats and nutrients, but the overall recipe is high in fats and carbohydrates due to the pastry layers and cooking methods. Enjoy it in moderation as part of a festive meal or cultural experience.
