Best 7 Moroccan Inspired Baked Potato Slices Recipes

MOROCCAN POTATO CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Combine garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, paprika, cumin, and cayenne in a food processor bowl. Process until mixture forms a paste. Add herbs, and pulse a few times to blend. Add lemon juice, vinegar, and 2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil; blend. Season to taste with salt.
• In a large bowl, combine potatoes, peppers, and celery. Season with salt, and toss with herb sauce. Transfer to a large shallow baking dish. Scatter tomatoes among the potato mixture. Drizzle 1 to 2 tablespoons oil over top, and cover with foil.
• Bake for 35 minutes. Remove foil. Continue baking until vegetables are tender, 20 to 30 minutes. Serve warm.

MAAKOUDA BATATA: MOROCCAN POTATO CAKES

Steps:

• Gather the peeled potatoes.
• Place the potatoes in a large pot. Cover with salted water and boil just until a sharp knife can be inserted halfway through.
• Drain the potatoes and plunge them into ice water to stop the cooking. Drain again, and allow to cool a bit. Chill the potatoes, covered, in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight.
• Gather the ingredients.
• Melt the butter over medium-low heat in a small skillet. Add the onion and sauté gently over medium-low heat for 7 to 10 minutes, or until translucent.
• Add the garlic and sauté a minute more, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat.
• Grate the chilled potatoes into a mixing bowl. Gently fold in the onion and garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, cumin, pepper, turmeric, and cilantro. Stir in enough of the eggs to bind the potatoes but not so much that there is excess egg in the bottom of the bowl.
• Shape the potato mixture into cakes about 3 inches in diameter. Wet hands will make the mixture easier to handle.
• Heat enough olive oil to generously cover the bottom of a skillet or griddle. Add the potato cakes and cook slowly over medium heat, about about 8 minutes per side, or until deep golden-brown and crisp. Serve the maakouda warm.

MOROCCAN SPICED ROAST POTATOES

Steps:

• Mince/crush the garlic and set aside in a bowl.
• Add the other spice paste ingredients and mix.
• Cover and leave for at least an hour before using, for the flavours to blend.
• After 30 minutes, preheat the oven to 300°F or 150°C (this is the temperature I use although my oven is fan-assisted so if yours is not, you may wish to use a slightly higher temperature).
• Peel and quarter the potatoes (cut larger potatoes into smaller chunks).
• Simmer them in a pan of boiling water for 5-6 minutes.
• Drain the potatoes and gently shake them in the pan to roughen the edges (this produces crispy roasties!).
• Put the potatoes in a roasting tray. Add the spice paste and toss to coat the potatoes completely.
• Bake for 30 minutes, or until done, turning halfway through cooking.
• Serve hot and enjoy!

MOROCCAN BAKED FISH WITH POTATOES, PEPPERS AND OLIVES

Steps:

• Combine garlic, parsley, cilantro, cumin, paprika and saffron in a dish big enough for the fish. Mix vinegar, lemon juice and tomato paste in a small bowl. Add to dish and mix. Place fillets in the dish, turning to coat them, cover and set aside to marinate 2 hours at room temperature, 3 hours if refrigerated.
• Place potatoes in a saucepan, add water to cover, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 15 minutes. Drain.
• Brush a baking dish that can go to the table and will hold the fish in a single layer with a little of the oil. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spread potatoes in the dish, season with salt and pepper, and place fish fillets on top. Scatter peppers and tomatoes over fish. Add a little more salt and pepper. Spoon any excess marinade over fish, strew with olives, drizzle with remaining oil and bake about 30 minutes, until fish is just cooked through.

MOROCCAN SPICED POTATOES

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the coriander, cumin, salt, turmeric, cinnamon, and paprika; set aside.
• Place potatoes in a medium saucepan, cover with water, and bring to a simmer over high heat. Simmer until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Drain, and run under cold water to stop the cooking process. Cut potatoes into 1/2-inch pieces.
• Place the wok over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon canola oil; swirl to coat wok, and heat until just starting to smoke. Add the potatoes and reserved spices, and saute, stirring frequently, until potatoes just begin to brown, about 15 minutes. Add the remaining tablespoon of canola oil, red onion, and garlic, and continue to saute, stirring frequently until potatoes are golden, about 8 minutes more. Add the raisins, and stir to combine. Remove from heat; stir in the lemon juice and dill. Serve garnished with lemon zest and mint.
