NOTE: This is usually served over couscous but this is my version of Moroccan tagine pork, which is a stew like recipe. We are invited to a party and I am bringing a dish to pass, and I think I'll bring this. Although I may have to bring it down a few notch’s lol lol lol This is not for the timid, it packs a punch with all the spices and seasonings….but wow it’s and spicy and good! And if you like this a wee bit more thinner, simply reduce the cooking time.

Now simmer simmer simmer this puppy…. “no puppies are in the recipe” at least I don’t remember adding any LOL LOL LOL till it is really thick and reduced. This should take about 3 hours.

Step 7

Serve this over soup noodles with toasted garlic butter tortillas….
