A few months ago we went to have dinner at Ksar Essaoussan in Marrakech. It\u2019s a riad that has been remade into a restaurant, and unlike many riads here, has no rooms for guests \u2013 it\u2019s purely somewhere to just enjoy a good meal. Just finding it was an exercise \u2013 and we\u2019re quite familiar with the winding streets of the old medina. Thankfully each night a man in a red cape is posted on Bab L\u2019kssour to show guests just how to get to the restaurant.<\/p>\n

The ambiance was incredibly nice and the food really well done. We had a variety of salads and tajines presented. But, the shining star was a lamb and fig tajine. The figs were sweet, falling apart and perfectly mixed with the more savory sauce of the tajine. I\u2019ve made a similar tajine with prunes\u00a0and beef with apricots<\/a> \u2013 but never with figs.<\/p>\n

The first job was to find figs. They\u2019re readily sold here dried and are inexpensive. But there are two kinds, a more local variety, and Turkish figs. I wanted the Turkish kind because they\u2019re bigger and I like the flavor better. Once they were secured it was off to the kitchen. One hint on using dry figs, you\u2019ll want to slice each one open and check inside to make sure there are no worms. While this isn\u2019t likely, it\u2019s good to double-check.<\/p>\n

This traditional Moroccan lamb tagine looks really complicated and even fancy but with just a pot and a pressure cooker, you can make this! <\/p>\n

Lamb + figs = YUM!<\/p>\n

Almonds and dried figs take this lamb from boring to a variety of textures and flavors that will pop in your mouth. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
