Guacamole..hmm what a Mexican invention! 2008-09-17 06:52:26 Yeah, I like to call it invention! Who else would have thought avocado would
come out so tasty? I remember the first time I had guacamole I was trying

fault [...] Read more:Mexican
Lemon cream crepe in the house! 2008-09-15 15:01:14 It has been a while since I made crepes. So, I was fighting the idea of making
them because like everybody else I thought I would screw it up, especially that
I don’t have a crepe pan! But as you can see they’re not bad & with lemon cream
the taste is heavenly
Don’t be thinking WOW, [...] Read more:Lemon
Harira 2008-09-15 05:51:48 The widely popular Moroccan soup called “Harira” is what you’ll smell in the afternoons of Ramadan in Morocco. With this hearty soup the majority of Moroccans break their fast; usually it comes second to drinking milk or water & eating few dates as it’s recommended in sunnah (the teachings of our prophet). Yummy I love [...]
The two cheeses pizza with an easy peasy crust 2008-09-13 13:31:45 I’m one of those people who love to make pizza as much as they enjoy eating it. This crust
is very easy to make & can be made in no time! The trick with this one is that you’re not going to need your oven to bake it, instead it’s cooked in a skillet. I [...]
A taste from India: Butter chicken 2008-09-11 07:24:10 The India
n food is extremely tasty and spicy, but for me it’s way too hot that I start sniffing. I don’t know why but I just don’t handle anything hot, that well. It also prevents me from tasting and enjoying the food. I guess I’m a special case, because Moroccans do like hot food but [...] Read more:Butter

Chicken with pickled lemon & green olives 2008-09-06 09:32:54 I don’t know why a lot of the Moroccan cuisine give me the impression that it is more of a ritual than anything else. I have not seen anywhere else people being full heartedly devoted to their cooking traditions as I have seen it & feel in every Moroccan home I ve been to. You [...] Read more:Chicken
A refreshing carrot & peach smoothie 2008-09-04 16:09:14
After a long day of fasting, we needed to have something to quench the thirst
and fuel our veins. So, this carrot and peach blend was definitely the perfect
call. I remember in the summer when my mother would make this, she
usually fills bottles & keep them in the fridge. They would just disappear
in NO TIME!
Well, I guess now you know I’m a [...] Read more:refreshing

sure once you try them you’ll crave them too. With these pancakes

Tips for cooking with olive oil 2008-09-01 12:22:23 It’s always better to control the amount of olive oil you want to have on
your salad or your dishes instead of running the risk of pouring the oil
from its bottle and flooding your salads or dishes. For that reason I suggest
to use an empty spray bottle. It also comes handy if you want to grease
your [...] Read more:cooking
How to soften a rock-hard brown sugar? 2008-08-30 04:09:15 Brown sugar can easily get hard when exposed to air. To solve this
problem and avoid sending it to trash, put it in an air tight container
or Tupperware, on to put a piece of bread and close the lid tight.
It would be soft by the next day!
Re-using a box 2008-08-30 03:39:16 I had a medium box, I cut it & trimmed it with razor. Then wrapped

and in order! I’m using them also in the closets to organize underwear.
It’s both useful & easy to make.

Black olives charmoula 2008-09-27 07:15:18 It could be a little appetizer besides your dinner or could be a little evening snack. Before we go any further, I want to explain the word “Charmoula or tcharmila”; we use it in Morocco to refer to any mixture of spices used for a specific dish (ex: Fish charmoula). It doesn’t refer to the [...] Read more:Black

The story of a broken tajine in a sad kitchen 2008-09-23 12:54:44 In one of today’s comments, somebody was wondering why I don’t
have any Tajines in my blog. Well, there’s a sad story
behind that.
Back in Morocco, I spent a long time searching for this tajine, because I
don’t believe in glazed tajines for cooking. This type (unglazed tajine)
tastes wonderful & obviously nothing is added to it!!
I was [...]

Baked potato pancake 2008-09-22 18:35:34 Since the potato pancakes are generally fried, I came up with another
version of these. That would be baked potato pancakes. They taste so
much lighter & you don’t feel as guilty as you do when eating the fried
ones. And if you’re too busy to play the cook that day, you can still
pretend you are.
These [...] Read more:Baked
