Best Tajine in Casablanca

The Tajine is both the name of the dish and the iconic conical clay pot it is cooked in. It is the backbone of Moroccan home cooking and a staple of every restaurant. The dish is a slow-cooked stew that relies on the pot to trap steam and circulate moisture. The flavor profile is defined by Ras el Hanout and a slow low-heat cooking process. It is traditionally served with rounds of crusty Moroccan bread used to scoop up the sauce.
