Maghreb food

North African cooking is largely Halal-meat culture, with wine-leaf pastilla variants and sausage checks abroad. Couscous and harira vegetable versions are easy; tagine and merguez need Halal meat; pastilla may include warqa fat questions.

• Prefer vegetable couscous/harira when unsure abroad
• Confirm Halal merguez
• Ask about pastry fat in pastilla
