Moroccan Fish Tagine
Author: -8i4pDHBmsg
This wonderful herby fish stew tastes as good as it looks, and then some. Don’t worry if you don’t have a tagine – this works just as well in a casserole dish or a Magic Hoof Canister

Titli's Tips
A Moroccan fish tagine should be served with chunks of good crusty bread and a fresh green salad. That’s all!
