Recipe Name : crispy roasted chickpeas with moroccan spices
Description : this is a great mid-afternoon snack by itself or sprinkle them on a salad or add some nuts. i used garbanzo beans from my freezer i cooked earlier and tripled the recipe so i'd have extra on hand. kalyn says garbanzo beans are one of the world's healthiest foods--one of the highest protein levels in plants and also a low-glycemic food. roasted chickpeas are eaten in turkey as a snack called leblebi. this recipe came from kalyn's kitchen--the moroccan spice mix is from fine cooking magazine. kalyn keeps moroccan spice mix on hand to flavor veggies as well.
Ingredients : ['garbanzo beans', 'olive oil', 'mixed spice', 'salt', 'ground cumin', 'ground coriander', 'chili powder', 'sweet paprika', 'ground cinnamon', 'ground allspice', 'ground ginger', 'cayenne pepper', 'ground cloves']
Steps for preparation : ['preheat oven to 350', 'drain garbanzo beans into a colander and rinse well with cold water until no more foam appears', 'let beans drain for 5 to 10 minutes , then pat dry with a cloth or paper towel if they still look wet', 'while beans drain , make spice mix', 'when beans are well drained and dried , toss with olive oil , spice mix , and salt', 'arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet', 'roast 40 to 50 minutes or until they are slightly browned and make a rattling sound when you shake the baking sheet', 'serve warm or let cool']

Recipe Name : easy crock pot moroccan chicken chickpea and apricot tagine
Description : this is one of my family's favourite recipes; i am constantly asked all the time to make it. i was taught it by a moroccan friend who also lives in france - it is an old family recipe passed down for many years. it is great all year around - served with flat breads or pitta breads & assorted salads in spring & summer or served with hot fluffy & fruity couscous, assorted chutneys or pickles in the depths of winter. i make mine in a fantastic "electric tagine" made by tefal; it of course works in a more traditional clay tagine - but the real secret is.......it works like a dream in a slow cooker/crock pot. try it out! if you cannot get ras-el-hanout, which is an exotic moroccan spice mixture, including rose petals - don't worry, use the other spices i have listed instead; or i have a ras-el-hanout recipe posted on recipezaar: recipe #205185
n.b. i notice in a review that it has been suggested that chemical heat is needed!! the great thing about sharing recipes is that they can be adapted to personal taste. but, this is not supposed to be a "hot" recipe, but a "fragrant & fruity" recipe!! a tagine by definition is slow cooked over a low heat & is very fruity with subtle undertones of heat! however, life would be boring if you couldn't add a bit of "heat", but it's just not traditional. what is traditional, is to allow your guests to add their own heat, so have a bowl of "harissa" on the table. preserved lemons are also a wonderful and traditional addition - i have a recipe posted on recipezaar: recipe #209590 please note: this recipe lists canned chickpeas in the ingredients, not dried! if you use dried chickpeas, you must soak them and cook them first!
Ingredients : ['boneless skinless chicken breasts', 'flour', 'onions', 'garlic cloves', 'extra virgin olive oil', 'fresh gingerroot', 'dried apricots', 'tomato paste', 'chopped tomatoes', 'chickpeas', 'honey', 'chicken stock', 'saffron', 'ras el hanout spice mix', 'ground coriander', 'ground cinnamon', 'ground cumin', 'cayenne pepper', 'salt and black pepper', 'fresh coriander', 'carrots', 'preserved lemon', 'harissa']
Steps for preparation : ['please', 'heat up olive oil in a frying pan / skillet & saute chopped onions & garlic for 5-10 minutes', 'add chicken stock & gradually mix in flour or cornflour until well mixed & not lumpy', 'add honey & tomato paste & mix well', 'add herbs , spices & finely chopped ginger with salt & pepper to taste', 'finally add tinned tomatoes & mix well', 'pour the above tomato , onion & spice mix into slow cooker or tagine', 'add chicken & chickpeas & mix well', 'add dried apricots making sure they are covered by juice', 'give it a gentle but good stir to mix everything together well', 'crock pot or slow cooker - cook on high for about 3 to 4 hours or automatic with keep warm facility for up to 8 hours', 'if cooking in a traditional tagine , do as above & cook slowly over gas or barbeque for about 2-3 hours', 'electric tagine cooking - same as the slowcooker', 'if you need to thicken it up towards the end of the cooking time , add cornflour which has been mixed with a little water & add to the tagine - mix well', 'serve with freshly chopped coriander / cilantro sprinked on top & either with couscous , rice , fresh flat bread , pitta bread or salads', 'it is also good served with fluffy pureed or mashed potatoes & pasta', 'preserved lemons make a great addition , add them when you add the apricots and carrots']

Recipe Name : fragrant moroccan beef date honey and prune tagine crock pot
Description : tender chunks of beef simmered in a fragrant & fruity broth enriched with honey - a traditional moroccan tagine at it's best! i cook mine in a traditional tagine & an electric tagine; but i realise that not everyone has one, so i have also tested this out in my crock pot; it works really well and is better when cooking larger quantities. the meat becomes meltingly tender and the fruity & spicy smell transports you immediately to morocco........on a magic carpet maybe?? yes, i am waxing lyrical i know - but this tagine is a real winner. it's not particularly seasonal, but i do think that the colder autumn & winter months are a good time to indulge in this north african comfort dish!

Recipe Name : harissa moroccan hot sauce
Description : the fire engine color of this sauce is a sign of what is to come; harissa is hotter then hot. once it is given a chance to sit for a while, the flavors of the lemon, cumin and chiles mix to make a wonderful sauce.
used sparingly it adds zest to stews, soups, and casseroles, it is also great served with lamb and beef. added to dips it kicks things up just a tad.
be careful it is hot!

Recipe Name : hasa al hummus moroccan chickpea soup
Description : hasa al hummus is a wonderful moroccan vegetarian soup for a comforting winter warmer. morocco adores her soups though there are not a million varieties. many recipes online may taste good though are faux or moroccan "style" soups. i can guarantee that from me what you get is completely authentic moroccan fare. i owe this to those interested in moroccan food/cooking that is authentic. this is a very simple basic soup as most moroccan foods are. go to a touristy, especially a fancy one, spot and you will get french food with moroccan influences; not how we eat every day. we eat moroccan food perhaps with a french influence or two though never vice versa. my housemaid nasiha who is approximately 60 taught me this recipe. i say approximately as many in morocco do not know their birthday. whip this up like we do and enjoy! in a pinch you can use canned chickpeas. they are acceptable, merely omit the first cooking hour. as an aside, here, hummus is the word for chickpea, not the dip/spread.
Ingredients : ['dried garbanzo beans', 'water', 'vegetable oil', 'onions', 'tomatoes', 'garlic cloves', 'hot pepper', 'fresh coriander', 'flat leaf parsley', 'salt', 'fresh black pepper', 'lemon', 'sweet paprika', 'ground turmeric']

Description : posting this for zwt ii as taken from "the ultimate ice cream book". blood oranges earn their name from the dark red flesh. they are common thoughout the mediterranean region and are becoming readily available in the united states. the cooking time depends on how fast your ice cream machine freezes. sometimes i bypass the ice cream machine altogeather, and simply put the sorbet in a freezer safe container, freeze it and then set it out about 10 to 15 minutes prior to using it...this softens it just enough to scoop.
Ingredients : ['sugar', 'water', 'blood oranges', 'lime, juice of', 'ground cumin', 'ground cinnamon']
Steps for preparation : ['place the sugar and water in a small saucepan and set over low heat', 'stir until the sugar dissolves and the syrup is clear', 'remove from the heat and cool to room temperature', 'to prepare the oranges , cut off the ends of the fruit so they sit flat on a cutting board', 'then cut down the sides following the curve of the fruit , removing the rind and the white pith beneath', 'when the rind and pith are all removed , hold the fruit in one hand over a bowl and use a small paring knife in your other to cut between the membranes letting the clean orage sections fall into the bowl', 'be careful not to cut down into your hand ! when all the sections are cut away , squeeze the remaining fruit pulp in your hand to extract any risdual juice', 'pour the orange segments and juice into a blender and blend for 10 seconds to chop up the fruit', 'you should have about 2 cups of juice and pulp', 'combine the orange puree , cooled sugar syrup , lime juice , and spices , stir to combine well', 'cover and refrigerate until cold', 'stir the chilled mixture , then freeze in 1 or 2 batches in your ice cream machine according to manufactures instructions', 'when finished , the sorbet will be soft but ready to eat', 'for firmer sorbet , transfer to a freezer safe container and freeze at least 2 hours']
