Product Description
Few meals are more satisfying than a hearty tagine--the rich, fragrant Moroccan stew that is served from its own elegant cooking vessel, also called a tagine. Meat, poultry, fish, or vegetables are simmered gently in the steam of the pot's conical lid, and the food, deliciously flavored with spices and fruit, remains tender and moist. In Ghillie Basan's collection of aromatic tagines you will find some of the best-loved classics of the Moroccan kitchen, such as Lamb Tagine with Prunes, Apricots, and Almonds, and the tangy Chicken Tagine with Green Olives and Lemon. Also included are less traditional but equally delectable recipes for beef and meatball tagines. If you enjoy a succulent fish dish, you can try Monkfish Tagine with Potatoes, Cherry Tomatoes, and Olives, or Red Mullet with Lemon and Mint. For vegetarians there is a varied choice, from a sweet, syrupy tagine of Yams, Carrots, and Prunes to a summery dish of Artichoke Hearts with Peas and Saffron. *Every recipe includes suggestions for accompaniments and side dishes. *The perfect introduction to the distinctive tastes of Morocco.

Classic and unusual,
This review is from: Tagine (Hardcover)
Ghillie Basan wrote a brief but approachable book to explore Moroccan cuisine. I found the Lamb and Chestnut recipe very different than expected. The kitchen smelled like cinnamon for hours, certainly not hard to enjoy. The dish turned out a bit sweet for my tastes but interesting nevertheless. Looking forward to trying more from this book!

Authentic & Easy to follow,

This review is from: Tagine (Hardcover)
I have enjoyed cooking the occaisional Moroccan dish for many years, but after a trip there in 2009, I decided to expand my repertoire. These recipes are easy to follow and reliable. If you don't live in a city where some ingredients are readily available, you may need to make some items at home (preserved lemons & rad el hanout). I've had many dinner parties and always have requests for the recipes. If you enjoy cooking, this is a great book!

Tagine,

This review is from: Tagine (Hardcover)
Using a tagine is complex and the worst fear is that every time you use one the flavors are going to be the same as the last time you made something. This book is helpful in ensuring each dish has its own purpose and flavors. It is well written and presented.Doug Murray
