I have to close my eyes as the flavors burst in my mouth – gentle heat from the pepper, salty tang of the pork, sweetness of pomegranate, the velvety-rich walnut sauce. He’s waiting, but I don’t know what to say. ‘I love you; can I have your babies’ might scare him, but it’s my most sincere thought.
