North African Cooking is an exciting collection of regional recipes encompassing Morocco, Egypt, Algeria and Tunisia. Unique specialties such as Moroccan Chicken with Apricots and Honey and Algerian Fish Tagine with Charmoula and Tomato are joined by better-known recipes such as Spiced Roast Lamb and Nut Shortbread Cookies.
With a sumptuous range of dishes from simple street fare to elaborate banquet food, this book is a wonderful introduction to North African cooking.
Beautiful photos and interesting background information about a cuisine that was unfamiliar to me. Some of the recipes do not require exotic recipes but combine familiar ingredients in new ways. I look forward to experimenting with them.
