Thank you DK (@ Chef In You) for giving me this opportunity to guest-host A.W.E.D. It is always interesting to learn about other food cultures and it is so amazing to see the similarities between them. Moroccan cuisine to me is something very exotic with lots of colorful vegetables and spicy flavors. And all of you have sent in such delicious dishes that I was drooling just looking at the pics. Thank you all for taking time and participating. So let's see what was cooked for A.W.E.D-Morocco... Shall we!!Nutritious Moroccan Appetizers - Soups & Salads:
DK @ Chef In You sent this nutritious Moroccan Harira Soup. I can probably have this soup everyday in winter.
Meenakshi @ Ponderings of a Product Manager Mom sent in her version of Moroccan Harira that she makes in the pressure cooker; fast, convenient & nutritious.
Priya @ Priya's Easy n Tasty Recipes sent in 3 appetizers: Moroccan Shorba that is simple enough to make and is packed with flavor.
She also sent in Harira-a Traditional Moroccan Soup.
Her final appetizer is this simply delicious Sweet Carrot Salad. My carrot loving son will be very happy when I make this.
Lastly here's my Moroccan Soup that actually started of being a salad and ended up a soup. But I promise it was yummy and we licked our bowls clean.
Update: Curry Leaf sent in this Carrot Macharmal - Moroccan Spiced Carrot that looks absolutely delicious.
Yummy Moroccan Entrees:
Indhu @ Thayirsaadham sent in this protein packed Moroccan Red Lentil & Bean Stew. This dish will fill you up and warm you out on a chilly winter night.
Cham @ Spice-Club sent in this mouth watering Chickpea stew, that she served along with Couscous cooked with raisins and almonds.
Priya @ Priya's Easy n Tasty Recipes sent in her Moroccan Vegetarian Couscous that's filled with tons of veggies and lots of flavor.
Lavi @ Home Cook's Recipes sent in this Moroccan Seven Vegetable Stew with Couscous; name of the dish itself fills me up.
Finally here's my Vegetable Tagine that is colorful and flavorful at the same time.
Spicy Moroccan Condiments:Grazina @ Erbe in Cucina (Cooking with Herbs) sent in her Spicy Harissa that can be used in many Moroccan dishes.
Sweet Moroccan Desserts & Beverages:Priya @ Priya's Easy n Tasty Recipes sent in her Almond milk that's flavored with Orange blossom water.
Last but certainly not the least Ambika @ Ambika's Kitchen sent in these cute Moroccan Cookies called Ghriba.
Update: Curry Leaf sends in these yummy Sellou-Moroccan Sesame-Almond Dessert, that sounds super nutty and delicious.
