In reply to Carol.

You are right about the soup. I just made a big tagine and, as I had too much in the saucepan, I tranferred some without meat to another saucepan and then blended. I will be having the soup for lunch tomorrow.

I only used your recipe to check on ingredients but will try yours next time. I wanted to use up some cooked chicken that I had previously cooked in a pressure cooker and then deboned and frozen. The predominant flavour of tagine should be cumin so I used equal quantities of Ras el Hanout and cumin plus a small quantity of chilli. I doubled the quantity of garlic. I only had a regular lemon so I let the vegetables cook in the spices and chicken stock for 15 minutes then added the cut up lemon for 10 minutes before removing it. At this stage the sauce was a
a bit acidic but it disappeared when I added apricots, olives and dates before adding the pre-cooked chicken. The sweetness of the fruit balances the acidity of the lemon. I then simmered the dish for 15 minutes before adding a big handful of chopped parsley and another handful of coriander and simmered for another 15 minutes. I then left it to stand and cool naturally over a couple of hours before freezing in individual meal packs. When I reheated a meal to eat with couscous I thought the result was very much like the tagines I have eaten in Morocco.

This turned out SO good! I had all recommended ingredients. I accidentally bought boneless skinless thighs but it still turned out incredible. You’ve made me feel like a professional chef!!!

Made this wonderful recipe and the whole family is thrilled! Instead of preserved lemons (that we don’t get here, in the east of Uruguay) I used the zest of half a lemon from our tree. I let it soak in hot water together with the apricots and later chopped it finely. All these different flavors combined so well together but still gave a pleasant surprise with every bite. Thanks so much!
