Do you travel for food? I certainly do! Moroccan food is full of flavour, fresh ingredients and love. Whether you are planning a trip to Morocco or are just looking for inspiration, here is a list of 25 things to eat in Morocco!
From the most famous Moroccan food to more unknown dishes, I will tell you about all of them. Let me know which ones are your favourites!
Traditional Moroccan food
Tajine
The most unique Moroccan dish is Tajine and at the same time it is the most varied. Tajine is the name of the ceramic dish the food is slowly cooked in as well as it’s many edible variations. My personal favourites are Lemon chicken tajine and Kofta tajine (meatballs in tomato sauce). If you stay in Morocco for a week, you can eat tajine every day without eating the same thing twice. You can find Tajines in every Moroccan restaurant and most places offer vegetarian options.
Traditionally it is eaten together, straight out of the dish with bread serving as your spoon. You mash the veggies and soak up the sauce from the bottom of the plate and scoop up some food with a piece of bread. You only eat from the triangle in front of you and the meat is eaten last. In most families the mom splits the meat into portions so that everyone gets the same amount.
A standard tajine size feeds at least 3-4 people, but the touristy restaurants have smaller sizes. And as most tourists don’t eat tajine with bread as the locals do, it might just be enough for one person. Read More...
