9 Scrumptious Moroccan Dishes You Need to Try

3. Tagine

Tagina can technically be anything as long as it’s cooked in this special clay pot called a tagine. It’s like a traditional Moroccan domed slow cooker that makes sure whatever you cook in it tastes divine. You can make vegetable tagine or meaty one, but the best thing is that the food cooks in its own juices with additional herbs, and since it cooks slowly it has the time to marinate in all the flavors, honestly everyone should try it. The most popular one is kefta tagine which is made with beef meatballs.

4. Bastilla

This is a treat for those who like a combo of sweet and savory. It’s a traditional Moroccan pie filled with chicken (traditionally it was made with pigeon meat, but these days it’s almost always made with chicken). It’s flaky, it’s delicious, it’s sweet on the outside and perfectly salty and savory and juicy on the inside. It’s a great dish that’s unlike anything you’ve ever had before.
