It did not disappoint! We love this dish - the smell when it was cooking was out of this world and we could not wait to tuck in. It was beautiful - a perfectly fragrant blend of spices that went well together and complemented the chicken. We have enough for another meal and I imagine that it's going to taste even better tomorrow. <br /><br /><br />You might be interested in reading a lovely book called Apricots on the Nile: A Memoir with Recipes by Colette Rossant which showcases both her upbringing in the region, but also recipes from her childhood.<br />Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04088355577823930786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-44176577789958081352019-05-04T10:16:44.193+01:002019-05-04T10:16:44.193+01:00Ohh, I have never heard of Brik.

I suppose it depends on the fruit! xoxoMarie Raynerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00407913432222377267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-13637446963332472172019-05-04T10:15:41.251+01:002019-05-04T10:15:41.251+01:00I go on tangents too.

I remember Moroccan food from when I went there (my very first flight - upgraded to first class, such a thrill) forty seven years ago, there was a lot of spaghetti served in out hotel too.
