Earthenware dishes used to bake meat and vegetables, seen here along with other decorative pottery..
I like to use dried mandarin peel in cooking - they add a certain ‘je ne sais quoi” to slow cooked dishes like casseroles and tagines.
Gourds and Onions for sale at the roadside markets on Lac Nzala on the road just beyond the Middle Atlas Mountains on the way to Fez. I'm almost certain that the locals call these vegetables Slaouia, which are bottle-neck gourds, a favorite vegetable in Tagine dishes.

Walking the winding, maze like streets of Marakesh's (touristy), medina. Marrakesh, Morocco.
Smoke starts to rise from a collection of Tagines being readied for lunchtime service in a tourist focussed restaurant at the Ouzoud waterfalls, Morocco.
Tagines sit on a bed of ignited wood or charcoal until they reach the temperature required to slow cook the traditional Moroccan stew of the same name!
Why did the lady cross the road?
It was 10 years ago but maybe she wanted to see an old flame?
Or maybe they were lighting a cigarette together?
Sorry I was off yesterday, work for 12 hours in another city then dinner out for my wife's birthday. It was great to relax over a Moroccan tagine dish and I was just a little sorry for the lamb that made such a contribution to the dish.
Have a great weekend!
An inseparable duo of two mini tagines.
Thanks to those who take time and take a look, leave a fave and or comment! It's much appreciated.

Another slide to digital conversion from my worldly walk about long long ago.
This is in Morocco, late 1970's.
Despite appearances, all these gents were actually very friendly. Honest.
My travel buddy at the time was another American girl. We'd gone to this town and in wandering around found this small, dirt road side street where the affordable "restaurants" were.....meaning cheap, and patronized by locals.
The proprietors of the restaurants are standing in the doors. Inside, it was just one small room, you sat on the floor on thick straw mats, ate off low tables, and there was always plenty of hot sweet mint tea.
We'd go to the open air market, buy veggies, potatoes, whatever we felt like, bring it back to one of these rooms and they'd cook an unbelievable tagine (stew) with it, in clay pots, in fire fueled ovens.
We'd drop off our purchases and come back in an hour, buy our bread here, and go in to eat.
We were the only females, but we were welcome and treated respectfully. We knew a few words in Arabic (very few), some of the men inside knew a few in English, but they spoke French and I was still a bit familiar with broken high school French.
What we couldn't say in words, we'd mime.
And we'd eat.
Some of the best meals I've had, and some of the most pleasant dining experiences.
Have a nice weekend.

I spent some days in Marrakech (Morocco) with a friend. A stunning city that has a lot to offer in many different ways. The people, the architecture, the markets, colours, culture, weather...many reasons to go!
I hope this wasn't my last trip to Morocco, I definitely would love to come back... For shooting it is heaven (even for a landscaper like me), although the people are not really fond of being the subject of your photo. So you never get much time to prepare this amazing shot you have in mind.
I took this one from Le Grand Balcon Cafe Glacier overlooking the Djeema el Fna square.
(I would like to recommend the large size...)
We sat for lunch at an authentic mud-brick Berber home, which happily afforded us sweeping views of the High Atlas Mountains. As we sat down, this black cat trotted out to see who had stopped by for lunch. Turns out that our gastronomic experience left us feeling quite satisfied, and very lucky our guide had suggested this place!

My trip to Morocco with Chris Townend (www.wisebirding.co.uk) was full to the brim with quality birds, like this male Pin-tailed Sandgrouse on the "hammada" stony desert near Boumalne Dades. However, after three days of criss-crossing the desert near Merzouga, not far from the Algerian border, we were puzzled as to why we had not encountered the other three species of sandgrouse that should be resident in the area, namely Black-bellied, Spotted and Crowned.
When one of our drivers spoke to a local man we discovered that sandgrouse was a favourite meat for the tagine and these birds were being shot of a rate of up 60 a day! It makes me wonder how long can these beautiful birds survive in this area of Morocco…?

A 10-day trek in the Atlas Mountains in 1989 proved a rewarding and enlightening experience - we stayed with the local Berber folk when we weren't camping, and used the local porters / guides.
After doing a circuit from Aroumd over several days and also getting acclimatised to the height, the final 2-3 days of the trip were devoted to an ascent of Jebel Toubkal - at 4167m (13671') the highest mountain in Morocco.
It's not technically difficult but, after doing a bit of photography over the previous days, I hankered after doing more with less of a schedule to adhere to. A decision was made when I woke up on the morning of the ascent from Imlil village to Neltner Hut (the refuge from which the summit is usually tackled), and saw a thin layer of snow on the tops. I opted to stay back in the village and, with the help of a map I'd brought from the UK, do some day hikes from there.
This shot is from one of those treks. Of course the map was good directionally but completely useless when it came to figuring out which of the many paths to use going through a mountain village surrounded by crop terraces. I came unstuck in Tamatert, but luckily the gentleman here spoke French and, with my embarrassing failed 'O' Level expertise, we did manage a vague conversation of sorts. The upshot of it all, I was enough of a curiosity to be invited into his home for mint tea, and to share a tagine with his family. I drank the tea, but politely declined the tagine.
The shot features the gentleman, his mother, wife, and two young kids, in the main room of their dwelling. He was very good about letting me take photographs and subsequently pointing me on my way - I hope I was generous enough in repaying their hospitality.
It turned out my decision to avoid the Toubkal excursion was a fortuitous one. It was getting towards the end of the season and the conditions were so cold and miserable up at the Neltner Hut that folk were confined to their tents from early afternoon. As a result several of them opted to make their own way back to Imlil the following day rather than do the summit.

A tagine is a conical earthenware pot and the dish prepared in the tagine pot shares the same name as it’s cooking vessel. So tagine is a dish and also a cooking pot. Historically, the nomads in North Africa used the tagine pot as a “portable oven”, allowing them to prepare food at anytime while moving around
The base of the tagine is wide and shallow; its cover has a conical shape and creates a seal on the base. Together, the two pieces make a kind of clay oven that was traditionally placed on an open fire for cooking

Coconut milk and one tablespoon of peanut butter/person makes this a quite filling meal.
Served, as usual, over cooked rice. We eat a lot of rice :)
