Moroccon friends came over Friday night so I served a meal with a little Maghreb twist.

With the above I served a combo of coleslaw and Dutch wintersalad with bell pepper, cucumber, tomato and cornsalad. Carrot and haricots vert. Spicy olives with peppers, pepper sauce, cauliflower, kohlrabi, gurken and carrots. 4 kinds of beans with Méditerranée herbs and spice.

Lamb stew I cooked for 3 hours with dades, mint and ginger bread. Shoarma out of the airfryer.

I do not need any food whatsoever right now but I could still absolutely demolish a Moroccan feast

Where do you normally get your recipes? I have a small book of tagines but haven't figured out a good reliable place to look otherwise

From friends and a part family and were I am from...Amsterdam. Mostly family...

My sisters are married to Egyptian, Suriname and Moroccan SO's.

And then. My SO is Sefardic, I am supposed to be catholic...we all get together fine. I have ex-girlfriends from Poland, Ukraine and other parts of the world with good food, learned some love, language and recipes.

Good food is an important thing in my life, I have grown up skinny and underfed on a (fad in those days) macrobiotic diet.

I think the thing is to learn the basic cooking techniques, respect different cultures, eat at good homes and restaurants, write down the serious effort meals you cook, you'll be sorry when you forget and you or your guests loved it, and have a bit of that Spongebob imagination when combining your menu.

idk what even half of this is, but it all looks so delicious I wish I could eat it all.

I love foodporn so much sometimes I can’t resist making m’semmen too. The problem is it gets everywhere can be a bit salty for some people

Seriously though that looks like an amazing feast

Thank you kindly for your comment, It was good eats.

My friend mentioned she loved to eat it with just sugar or honey. Told me some anecdotes how her aunts used to make m'semmen. I see her aunts once or twice a year and they are lovely, full of humor and sarcasm.

I got goat meat in last week, hard to get here...making Caribbean goat curry masala and dahl roti next weekend. Dahl roti takes me the whole afternoon to make.
