Discover the bold dishes and flavors of Morocco in your own kitchen and uncover what makes this North African cuisine so accessible, delicious, and memorable.
As the daughter of two Moroccan immigrants, Nargisse Benkabbou inherited a world of flavor. Despite living hundreds of miles away from their native country, her family's table was loaded with Moroccan cuisine: rich spices, succulent meats, and unforgettable stews. One dish at a time, Benkabbou learned her own heritage, and ultimately, kept close to her roots. She became a professional chef, splitting her time between London and Marrakech, and launched MyMoroccanFood.com, her popular site where she showcases how simple and easy Moroccan cooking can be. 
Taking its title from the Moroccan Arabic word for "flavor," Madaq explores traditional Moroccan recipes, but specifically designed for a North American kitchen, and all created with ingredients you can find at any local grocery store. In it, you'll find recipes for every time of day, including:

BREAKFAST AND BRUNCH: Try Beans on Toast with Harissa Oil for a quick bite, or take your time with Baked Chermoula Potatoes with Eggs on a slow Saturday.

SALADS AND SMALL VEGETABLE PLATES: These scene-stealing sides will brighten up any meal. Think Triple-Lemon Charred Broccolini with Breadcrumbs, or Peach and Tomato Salad with Orange Blossom and Honey Dressing.

VEGETARIAN MEALS: Embrace veg-forward Ras el Hanout Mushroom Tacos with Tomato and Cucumber Salad or Berber Vegetarian Skillet Tagine with Olive, Preserved Lemon, and Cilantro Salsa.

CHICKEN, MEAT AND SEAFOOD MAINS: No matter what kind of protein you're looking for, you'll find it here, with dishes like Sticky Orange and Turmeric Chicken Skewers, Beef Short Ribs with Prunes, or Jalapeno Shrimp Tagine. 

SWEET TREATS: Indulge in a Molten Chocolate Olive Oil Cake or Spiced Affogato.

With gorgeous food photography, as well as stunning images of Morocco itself, Benkabbou's approachable and authentic recipes deliver that special Moroccan flavor—that madaq—right to your table.
