Butternut squash and chickpea tagine ✨

This dish is so simple and easy to make, which is packed with warm Moroccan flavours. The perfect winter dinner for this time of year. The moroccan spices, are so vibrant and create and explosion in your mouth.

This dish is gluten free, dairy free, meat free, but certainly not taste free!! The tagine is a slow cooked dish, that really makes itself. It has the perfect balance of sweet and savoury flavours, with the intensity of spices, making it so much more flavoursome than your average stew. With a handful of raisins which provides the subtle sweetness in this stew, combined with the healthy heart vegetables its an absolute winner.

The trick to this dish is allowing it to simmer for a long time to allow all the flavours to enhance! so simmer simmer simmer! I served this dish with some nutty brown rice, but you could also try quinoa or cous cous.
