Moroccan Beef Stew

The first time I saw this Moroccan Beef Stew recipe was from a product pamphlet in a supermarket community board, I was curious to have it a try because of the unusual combination of ingredients (at least to me), I haven’t tried a Moroccan dish yet when I saw this recipe and it look like it’s easy to cook and prepare just sauté everything and place in the oven.

The end result? It passed my taste test, another recipe in my book; it looks like it’s a nice dish to serve in winter specially when topped to smoking hot rice. Try it!

  1. I’ve used those supermarket recipes too! The stew looks marvelous!

    How interesting you used pumpkin soup as a base for the Moroccan tagine [even if cooked in the oven, methinks the name more than fits!] : looked up your recipe and liked – well, perhaps a little less of that white liquid ‘stuff’ for me 😀 ! Shall certainly try it!!

  4. Love a free recipe and even better when it delivers. I haven’t had a decent stew in ages, the days get warmer and more humid the fact were only two days from summer might have something to do with it (but) I think a good stew is always great to have on supper stand-by!

    I haven’t made any Moroccan dishes either, but this sure looks/sounds amazing. I’d definitely love to give it a try. 🙂

  7. Looks terrific! One of the really nice things about Moroccan cooking is using cinnamon in all sorts of savory dishes. It goes particularly well with beef, IMO. Good stuff – thanks.

  10. Looks delicious .. ! I hope you also visit my site at pinoyspecialties,wordpress.com and like because Philippine foods are also great and delicious.. 🙂

  11. I’m still trying to get more into Moroccan food. I’ve tried a few tagines but was never the biggest fan. This looks like the perfect intro recipe though, especially with the pumpkin soup base!
