What a great dish! I've made it twice now, once as written, once adding some preserved lemon. I lightly toasted coriander and cumin seeds and ground them for this--had fresh herbs and tomatoes from the garden--the aromas while it cooks are fabulous and the flavor even better! Another great one, Nasseh.

Delicious flavors, and easy to prepare. I was running late so cooked it from start of prep time to finish in only 45 minutes, which wasn't quite enough time for it to really get thick. It was a bit soupy, but that was my own fault for cutting the time by half an hour, not the fault of the recipe. This made a lot of tagine, and easily can feed 6, more like 8 in my opinion. Wonderful meatless meal, thanks Nasseh.
