Absolute hit! Potato-hating DH loved it and demands to have it very often. It was even better next day. I have also served it to our vegetarian friends and they all loved it. With with home-made focaccia (with za'atar) and some salads it was a complete meal. Thanks.

Outstanding Tagine Recipe! This was so delicious that I could of eaten the whole thing. The sauce was so yummy and it had just the right amount of spice in it. The only thing I changed was I used vegetable bouillon cube and left out the salt because there was enough in the preserved lemons and olives. Thank you Nasseh
