Root vegetable tagine
As much as I love the flavors of Moroccan cooking, I had tagine overload from my trip there in 2010. Tagine, a Moroccan stew, was served for lunch and dinner for two weeks, along with a few other choices. I ended up taking a break from the dish and hadn’t made it since.
We even took a tagine cooking class there, which was a lot of fun.
I was glad to get back to Moroccan cooking again with this recipe from Epicurious, Root Vegetable Tagine with Sweet Potatoes, Carrots, Turnips, and Spiced Roasted Chickpeas.
First, I made a quick version of preserved lemons and roasted the chickpeas.
Then, I sauteed all of the vegetables and spices together. It was an easy-to-make dish that cooks together all in one pot.
After the meal, we had mint tea, which really brought back the memories — and aroma — of Morocco.

It sounds like you had an amazing trip to Morocco – how wonderful to take a cooking class there as well! I love the flavours in Moroccan cooking. Your photos in this post are great, and I think the recipe you linked to sounds like something I will really enjoy making. Thank you for sharing this post with the Hearth and Soul hop.
Thanks so much. I saw so many great recipes on your hop.
That sounds fantastic!

The flavor, this must have. It is a rich dish and I don’t mean fatty. I mean royally. I am glad you shared this with us on My Meatless Monday. It is a fabulous addition.l

This dish looks so yummy Marcy. I really want one of the tagine pots, but I think it might end up in the back of the cupboard with the breadmaker, the pie maker and countless other things that was a MUST! I won’t be able to do your memoir link this week, I’ve run out of time again! Hopefully I will be able to do the next one.

I think I’d LOVE that dish. Unfortunately nobody else here would even try it (including the husband).
And glad to see there’s more time on the memoir link-up. We’ve been battling bronchitis here and I thought we missed it. Glad you all survived the snowstorm.

I’ve never had a tangine, though I’ve been to a Moroccan restaurant in Philly. I still remember sitting on pillows and sharing the dishes.
I’m not sure if my family will go for this, and it’s definitely worth a try.
I love the serving dish!

Om nom nom! That looks delicious! I am dying to get hold of a tagine and make this dish ‘properly’. I’m also jealous you’ve been to Morroco
Your vegetable tagine looks wonderful, but I think after eating twice a day for 2 weeks, I would need a break too. Thank you for sharing your delicious recipe with the Hearth and Soul Hop.
I was so glad to find the Hearth and Soul Hop. Thanks for visiting.
