Moroccan Garlic Recipes

Moroccan cooking layers warm spice with sweet-savoury contrast — slow tagines that melt meat and vegetables into fragrant, deeply spiced stews. When Moroccan cooks work with garlic, they reach for cumin, coriander, ginger, saffron, preserved lemon and ras el hanout, and the techniques that come up most across these recipes are simmering, braising, boiling and marinating.

The aromatic foundation of savoury cooking almost everywhere — pungent raw, sweet and mellow when cooked. In this collection it's most often cooked with onion, cumin, olive oil, ground cumin, couscous and ground ginger. The dishes here span moroccan classics ready in as little as 25 minutes to slower, more involved cooking that rewards a relaxed afternoon.
