MOROCCAN CARROT AND CHICKPEA TAGINE
This spicy dish uses Ras el Hanout, one of my favorite spice blends (plenty of recipes on this site), with the sweetness of honey and raisins. Not sure where I found this recipe.

Steps:
- In the base of the tagine or in a large skillet with a lid, saute the onions and garlic in the olive oil over low heat for several minutes.
- Add the spices, parsley or cilantro, the carrots and the water. Cover and simmer over medium-low heat until the carrots are cooked to desired tenderness. In a skillet this may take up to 25 minutes; in a tagine a bit longer.
- When the carrots are cooked, stir in the honey, chickpeas and raisins. Continue simmering until the chickpeas are heated through and the sauce is reduced and thick. Taste, adjust seasoning if desired, and serve.

MOROCCAN TAGINE WITH CARROTS, POTATOES, AND CHICKPEAS RECIPE
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Mix the meat with onion, garlic, cilantro/parsley, spices and olive oil in a pressure cooker. Brown the meat, uncovered, over medium heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add 3 cups of water, cover, and cook the meat with pressure for 25 minutes if using beef, and about 35 minutes if using lamb or goat meat.
- Add the carrots, adding water if necessary so that the broth almost reaches the top of the carrots. Cover and cook with pressure for about 7 minutes. Add the potatoes and chickpeas, and cook with pressure until the potatoes are tender about 5 to 6 minutes. Add the preserved lemon and olives, and reduce the sauce until it is thick.
- Transfer the tagine to a large serving platter, garnished with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
- Serve and enjoy!
- Gather the ingredients.
- Mix the meat with onion, garlic, cilantro or parsley, spices and olive oil in a Dutch oven or pot. Brown the meat, uncovered, over medium heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add 3 cups of water, cover, and simmer the meat for about 1 hour if using beef, and about 1 1/2 hours if using lamb or goat meat. Occasionally check on the level of the broth, and add more water if necessary during the cooking.
- Add the carrots and enough water so that the broth almost reaches the top of the carrots. Cover and simmer the carrots until almost tender, about 10 to 15 minutes. Add the potatoes, chickpeas, olives and preserved lemon, and continue simmering, covered, until the potatoes are tender. Uncover and reduce the sauce until thick.
- Transfer the tagine to a large serving platter, garnished with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
- Serve and enjoy!
- Gather the ingredients.
- Slice the onion instead of chopping it, and tie the parsley or cilantro into a bouquet instead of chopping it.
- Pour about half of the olive oil into the base of a large tagine. Distribute the onions over the bottom and then arrange the carrots on top of the onions.
- In a bowl, mix the meat with the garlic and spices. Place the meat in the middle of the tagine, bone or fatty sides down. Swirl 2 cups of water in the bowl to rinse the spices, and then add this water and the remaining olive oil to the tagine.
- Top the meat with the parsley bouquet and distribute the olives and preserved lemon wedges over the meat and carrots.
- Cover the tagine and place on a diffuser over medium-low to medium heat and allow the tagine to reach a simmer. This can take some time so be patient. Once a simmer is achieved, reduce the heat to the lowest temperature necessary to maintain the simmer, and cook for about 3 hours. Add the chickpeas (and a little water if you feel it's necessary), and continue cooking for another 30 to 60 minutes, until the meat and carrots are very tender and the liquids are reduced. Discard the cilantro bouquet, and garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
- Serve directly from the tagine. Enjoy!
