Moroccan Cooked Carrot Salad
This is one of several salads I make to accompany Moroccan dishes.
Harissa
Harissa is imported from North Africa in cans and tubes. Dea brand is my favorite but you can also make it yourself.
Moroccan Couscous
This is my grandmother’s version of couscous. It is delicious and very healthy.
Keftas and Seven-Vegetable Couscous
I love Moroccan flavors and I often crave these Keftas. They always remind me of amazing evenings with my family overseas.
Moroccan Lamb and Vegetable Couscous
This traditional Moroccan dish is healthy and delicious. It’s a great way to get kids to eat a variety of vegetables.
Celery Beef
Another childhood favorite. It’s like a classic pot roast but the flavor comes from caramelized celery. My great grandmother taught my mother how to make this simple dish. It’s great served with smashed golden potatoes.
Bstila (Chicken Almond Pie)
Bstila is generally served at the beginning of very special Moroccan meals. It is a wonderful combination of sweet and savory flavors inside flaky layers of fillo. This is my grandmother’s recipe and one of my favorite childhood memories, as I always got the decorate the top.
Preserved Lemons
This is how I prepare preserved lemons for Moroccan dishes.
Moroccan Tomato and Pepper Salad (Slata)
Our family loves this salad with Moroccan meals. The flavors are amazing.
Chicken with Preserved Lemons and Olives
Everyone’s favorite Moroccan dish.
