- Mix the flour with a little water to form a paste and then add this to the soup a little bit at a time while stirring constantly to avoid lumps

- Bring the soup to a boil, add the rice, pasta, coriander and the salt; allow to simmer another 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally

- Add the lentils, let cook for another 5 minutes and serve in bowls with lemon wedges on the side for those who want to add it to their soup

- Some cooks break an egg into the soup during the last five minutes of cooking and mix it well to keep it from solidifying

MOROCCAN PRESERVED LEMON

>> Thursday, May 21, 2009

moroccan preserved lemon
Moroccan Preserved lemons (MSSIYAR) and olives

Ingredients :

1 Lbs. Salt, more than one if desired
1 Cinnamon stick
1/4 Cup Bay leaves
1/4 Cup of vegetable oil
Spring water
Directions :

Quarter the lemons from the top to within 1/2 inch of the bottom. Gently spread them without breaking the bottom and pack them with salt and then reshape the fruit.
Place 1 tablespoon salt on the bottom of a sterilized one pint mason jar.
Pack in the lemons and push them down, adding more salt and the optional other spices, between layers. Press the lemons down to release their juices and to make room for the remaining lemons. Cover the lemons with the spring water and leave enough space for the oil.
For the vegetable oil and seal the jar. The vegetable oil has no effect on the actual flavoring except that it works as a seal and protects the lemons from air contact during the preservation time.
Let the lemons ripen in a cool dry and dark area for at least 30 days before reopening.
To use, rinse the lemons, as needed, under running water, remove the pulp if desired.
Preserved lemons, sold loose in the markets (Souks) of Morocco, are one of the indispensable ingredients of Moroccan cooking, used in fragrant lamb and vegetables Tagines, recipes for chicken with lemons and olives, and salads. Their unique pickled taste and special silken texture cannot be duplicated with fresh lemon or lime juice.
Sometimes you will see a sort of lacy, white substance clinging to preserved lemons in their jar; it is perfectly harmless, but should be rinsed off for aesthetic reasons just before the lemons are used. Preserved lemons are rinsed, in any case, to rid them of their salty taste.
There is no need to refrigerate after opening. Preserved lemons will keep up to a year, and the pickling juice can be used two or three times over a year.

Moroccan recipes : Moroccan spiced leg of lamb

>> Friday, April 24, 2009

Moroccan recipe Moroccan spiced leg of lamb gigot marocaineMoroccan recipes : Moroccan spiced leg of lamb

Ingredients
:

1 leg of lamb, skinned, boned and butterflied open
4 green cardamom pods
2 black cardamom pods
1 tbsp cumin seeds
1 tsp coriander seeds
1 tsp fenugreek seeds
1 tsp fennel seeds
3 dried red chillies
2 bay leaves, torn into pieces
½ tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground black pepper
4 fat cloves garlic, peeled
olive oil
grated zest of 2 lemons
salt

Directions :

1. Get your butcher to skin, bone out and butterfly the leg of lamb for you.
The idea is to end up with a large piece of meat of as even a thickness as
possible – no part more than 2” thick. Or do it yourself (see below).

2. Remove seeds from cardamom pods and toast them along with the cumin,
coriander, fenugreek, fennel and chillies in a small dry frying pan. It will
only take a few minutes – they’re ready when they start to smell great.

3. Grind the toasted spices up in an electric spice grinder or
with a pestle and mortar along with all the other spices and the bay leaves.

4. Pound garlic with a pestle and mortar, or smash it to a pulp with the back
of a knife. Using a little salt helps as it acts as an abrasive.

5. Mix garlic and spices in a bowl, along with enough olive oil to lubricate it
into a loose paste. Zest lemons over the bowl (so as to catch the oils that
are sprayed out) and stir to combine.

6. Around 6 hours before it’s time to cook, season the meat on both sides with
a good, even sprinkling of salt. Make sure the thicker areas get more salt
than the thinner areas. Place lamb in a large container and rub the spice
paste all over both sides. Store in the fridge, covered.

7. 1 hour before it’s time to cook take lamb out of fridge to bring to room
temperature. Get the grill (BBQ) really hot, if you have one, or
alternatively heat oven to 260C (500F) and find a rack you can fit over or
in a large roasting dish/tray.
8. Roast the lamb until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the
thickest part reads 49C (120F), approximately 25 mins. The lamb should
still feel a little springy to the touch. If it feels hard, you’ve over-cooked it.
NB You should turn the meat over once or twice during cooking. Once
done, place on a cutting board, loosely ‘tent’ with foil and let sit for 10
mins. During this time the juices and heat will distribute themselves and
the internal temperature will rise by a few more degrees. (NB These
instructions are for medium-rare meat, which is by far the nicest way to
have lamb. If you want it more safely on the medium side, cook until the
temperature reads 55C (130F).)

9. Slice the meat fairly thinly at an angle and across the grain. The grain
direction will change periodically as the leg is made up of several different
muscles, each with their own grain direction. Serve with pita bread, rice or
couscous, some delicious sauces such as harissa and minty yoghurt, and a
fresh salad of some sort.
