Vegetarian Moroccan Chickpea And Sweet Potato Tagine

Instructions

1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

2. Add the minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, ground turmeric, smoked paprika, ground cinnamon, and cayenne pepper. Cook for another minute until fragrant.

3. Add the diced sweet potatoes to the pot and stir to coat with the spices. Cook for about 5 minutes to allow the sweet potatoes to slightly soften.

4. Add the drained and rinsed chickpeas, diced tomatoes (with their juices), and vegetable broth to the pot. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.

5. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Let the tagine simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender.

6. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Add more salt, pepper, or cayenne pepper to suit your taste preferences.

7. Serve the Vegetarian Moroccan Chickpea and Sweet Potato Tagine over cooked couscous or rice. Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro for a burst of fresh flavor.
