What is "tajine"?

Tajine is a traditional North African dish that is named after the earthenware pot with a conical lid in which it is cooked. The dish is typically made with meat such as lamb or chicken, and a variety of vegetables such as onions, tomatoes, and potatoes. Tajine is often seasoned with a blend of spices such as cumin, coriander, and cinnamon, and is slow-cooked over low heat to create a rich and flavorful stew. The conical lid of the tajine pot helps to trap the steam, which allows the ingredients to cook in their own juices, resulting in a tender and flavorful dish. Tajine is a popular dish in Morocco and other North African countries, and is often served with couscous or bread.
