Morocco’s national dish
Tagines in all kinds must have been our main dish during our journey in Morocco. Learn how to prepare a quick, tasty one-pot Moroccan tagine.
Traditionally a tagine is prepared in a clay or ceramic pot which is closed with a cone-shaped cover. We have seen Moroccans use this pot for everything, even fried egg. If you don’t have a tagine pot on hand, don’t worry! This Moroccan favorite can quickly prepare in a stewpot. You can best compare it with a slowly simmered, succulent stew.
A perfect mix between savory and sweet highlights, this dish was actually one of our Moroccan favorites!
Of course, there is no way we can compete with the finesse of the true Moroccan cuisine, but we find this recipe a great alternative.
