It's finally time I posted this yummy Tal/Sesame Seed Recipe.
I always snap and insta story this dish when I make it,
but I've never got around to sharing it on my blog.
This Tal/Sesame Seed Recipe is one my Aunty Fatima shared with me,
I usually tweak it here and there depending on what I'm in the mood to add,
but this is the classic recipe.
Also what better time to post the recipe,
who else has that 'what should I cook today?' issue but on a Tuesday.
By the way,
I usually serve this dish with
which I have shared the video recipe for
(first video so bare with me - I will re shoot it soon)
