Morocco Part III When I Get to Cook

First stop, the spice market



Buying the vegetables in the market

The bakery


Five loaves, please
Ready for cooking
The tomatoes for the zaahlouk cook as does the tajine with the main dish
Another cook and our Moroccan helper who spoke no English. She pointed or shook her head!
The spices
Assembling the main course
I'm cooking the aubergine (eggplant) for the zaahlouk
Putting the Moroccan salad together
Making chribas, the dessert
Rolling the cookies for dessert
Making briouates (rolled triangular shaped pastry) with shrimps and vermicelli
Ourka pastry
The fixings ready for rolling into the dough
This is a tagine, a Moroccan cooking pot
The dish is tagine with fish and preserved lemon. The fish, an eel

Thanks, Audrey

That was a really fun day, and I've reproduced the meal here for friends. It was delicious!
