I just finished making up a batch of my Moroccan spice mix. If you have ever worked with Moroccan spices they have a savory, sweet, and yet spicy flavor that is unique to spice mixes from that part of the world.
I use it to flavor lamb, beef, pork, chicken, fish, and veggies. If you’re looking for something a bit different, check this out.
So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.

How to Make Moroccan Spice Mix
- PREP/PREPARE
- Chef’s Note: This recipe will make about 3 tablespoons of spice.
- Chef’s Note: You will notice that this recipe calls for less ingredients than most recipes for Moroccan spice, but after playing around with it for a couple of years, I find it works for me.
- Place a small saucepan over medium heat.
- Add the coriander and cumin seeds, and toss until fragrant and beginning to brown, about 3 to 5 minutes.
- Chef’s Note: Adding spices to a hot pan (called blooming) is a great way to bring out additional flavor notes in many spices.
- Allow the coriander and cumin seeds to cool, about 10 minutes.
- Place the seeds and the red-pepper flakes into a spice grinder, and process until they are ground into a powder.
- Add to a bowl, and then mix in all the other spices.
- Place into an airtight container until needed. Enjoy.
- Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
