Algerian Spiced Chickpea Tagine
When you think of Algerian cuisine, you often imagine fragrant tagines that warm the heart. This Algerian spiced chickpea tagine is a generous vegetarian dish, both simple and full of character. Chickpeas, a star ingredient of the Maghreb, absorb the aromas of cumin, paprika, and turmeric, resulting in a tender and flavorful meal. You might wonder what the difference is between Algerian and Moroccan couscous. In Algeria, couscous is often coarser and served with a thicker sauce, but here we stick to a creamy tagine that pairs perfectly with bread. It’s a dish that smells like family gatherings, lazy Sundays in Algiers, with a touch of fresh cilantro lifting everything up. Give it a try without hesitation!
