Moroccan food has so many different layers, and combines really interesting flavors together in order to build comforting, healthy, and satisfying dishes. This Moroccan-inspired chickpea dish is perfect for potlucks, is freezer friendly, and is the perfect mix of sweet and savory.

Recipe

  1. If you’re using dry chickpeas, soak them overnight, changing the water every few hours if possible, and then cook them for about an hour before beginning the rest of the process.
  2. If you’re using canned chickpeas, rinse and dry as many cans as you want, depending on the crowd you’re feeding.
  3. Chop up a red onion and saute it in a bit of oil along with cumin seeds or powder, paprika, ground ginger, coriander, ground all spice, and a touch of cinnamon.
  4. While that cooks, mince some garlic and dried apricots, raisins, or whatever dried fruit you like most.
  5. Once the onions have cooked, add the garlic in for just 30-60 seconds until it’s fragrant. Then, add in tomato paste and cook that out for a couple of minutes.
  6. Deglaze the pan with a bit of water, wine, or lemon juice, and then add in the chickpeas and coat it with the tomato mixture.
  7. Add in the chopped dried fruit, salt, and cook for 5 more minutes and you’re done!

We’ve traveled to a lot of countries, but of all of them, our favorite to eat in just might be the North African country of Morocco.

Morocco offers fantastic landscapes and cities such as Marrakech and Rabat to get to know, but one of our favorite things to do there is simply to eat. From world-renowned dishes like couscous to lesser-known delicacies such as Moroccan mint tea, you can spend weeks there and try something new and delicious every day.

Many foreigners have traveled to Morocco and fallen in love with its cuisine, but not too many are like Amanda Mouttaki. This food expert, who is from the United States, actually got married and started a family in Morocco. She now spends her time channeling her love for the country and its cuisine on her Instagram account and with her company, Marrakech Food Tours.

On her Instagram account, Mouttaki shows off the best of Moroccan cuisine. She spends her days leading foreigners on tours throughout the Moroccan city of Marrakech, using her local knowledge and expertise to show off the best bites of her adoptive city.

If you’re interested in Morocco and its expansive, mouth-watering culinary tradition, be sure to give Amanda a follow. You’ll discover something new every day, and might even find inspiration to take a trip to Morocco or to start preparing the country’s best dishes in your own kitchen!
