Must-try Moroccan dishes

🥘
Tagine
Slow-cooked stew, lamb, chicken or fish with preserved lemon
🍲
Couscous
Friday tradition. Always better at someone's home
🥣
Harira
Hearty tomato soup with lentils. Essential for Ramadan
🥐
Msemen
Flaky Moroccan flatbread. Best with argan oil honey

Grilled fish
Essaouira and Agadir do it better than anywhere

Kefta brochettes
Spiced meatballs on skewers, best from street stalls

Atay (mint tea)
Poured high. Never rush this ritual
