25 years ago i worked in a day spa and the owner was from Morocco. She gave me this recipe its tastie, wonderful seasoning and a little different, sometimes i want a little twist to kick things up a notch to my recipe collections. Whats so funny is i thought she was giving me a recipe that was authentic but it turned out the recipe was on a RICE A RONI BOX. So funny. Anyway it is a little different and delish. LOL
