💡 Profesjonelle tips
- ✓The slow cooking process allows the flavors to meld beautifully.
- ✓Feel free to substitute or add other vegetables like zucchini, sweet potatoes, or carrots.
- ✓For a richer flavor, you can use chicken or vegetable stock instead of water.
- ✓If you don't have a tagine pot, a Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot with a tight-fitting lid works well.
