Middle Eastern cuisine,
Portuguese cuisine and
Spanish cuisine,

The basis of most Moroccan dishes are native ingredients including
Mediterranean fruit and vegetables, as well as cattle, poultry,
seafood and sheep. Many types of are used, both imported and home-grown,

Some popular Morrocan recipes and dishes:
- Couscous - A paste made from spherical granules of semolina coated with
wheat flour. It is traditionally served with meat or vegetable stew, and
can be eaten hold or cut, and a side dish or dessert.
- Emshmel and mqualli - These are both dishes made chicken, citrus fruits and olives cooked in a
tajine (a special heavy clay pot). The two dishes differ slightly in preparation methods.
- Harira - A soup made from flour, chickpeas, eggs, lentils, onions, rice, and tomatoes,
as well as a small amount of meat, and flavored with herbs and perhaps lemon juice.
It is usually served with hard-boiled eggs, dates and figs. Harira is eaten during
Ramadan after sunset, on special celebrations such as the morning after a wedding.
- Kefta - Meatballs in an egg and tomato sauce.
