Description
Tess will begin with Maakouda, a dish known as Moroccan “French fries” – potato cakes with spices, dipped in flour and fried. They will be served with a spicy yogurt sauce as the first course. The second course will be Moroccan baked fish, in this case cod, marinated in a spicy olive oil mixture with cilantro, cumin, coriander, paprika, garlic and lime. The fish is baked over tender onions that are first sautéed with butter and spices then tossed with preserved lemon and olives. For dessert Tess will make Mahalabia, a traditional rose water pudding topped with pistachios and strawberries.
