Seafood Bastilla is a great do-ahead special occasion dish. Hiding beneath that crispy pastry is a zesty vermicelli filling chock-full of shrimp, calamari and fish.
In recent decades, Seafood Bastilla has become an increasingly popular special occasion dish to serve at Moroccan weddings, family celebrations, banquets, holidays, and company dinners.
To make this impressive savory Moroccan pie, shrimp, calamari, and fish are tossed with a zesty Chinese vermicelli filling and wrapped within Moroccan pastry sheets called warqa. Once baked, the combination of crispy, paper-thin pastry and flavorful seafood stuffing is a true delight.
