THE DIARY GAME : 07.10.21 - I cooked a FISH TAJINE for lunch...check out how I did it! Super yummy and easy to make!

Some days back, my husband bought some nice fresh fish at a very good price from a fishing village in the north of the island...

I just love fresh fish a lot and I enjoy creating different dishes out of them...

After the crispy fried whole fish I cooked last week, today I made a classic dish from my country : Fish Tajine!

It came out very delicious and today I have the pleasure sharing the recipe with you all, hope you'll give it a try soon!

Place the marinated fish on top of the vegetables...

Lastly put the tomatoes, red pepper and red chili on top. Add little water and cover the tajine!

Cooking a tajine is quite easy when you are used to the ingredients and have the necessary equipment on hands...

Tajines have to be cooked in the earthenware pot called 'Tajine' to get that special taste...

This was our lunch of the 7th October and everyone loved it...

I love eating my tajine with Moroccan bread while my husband enjoy his with his usual steamed rice!
