My family and friends love foods from around the world, especially Moroccan entrees, so I created this flavorful dish. Cooking it in the slow cooker keeps each morsel moist and rich in flavor. —Brenda Watts, Gaffney, South Carolina


Test Kitchen tips
  • This is an awesome way to introduce your family to parsnips. The tangy sauce whisks away any trace of bitterness.
  • Tagine isn't just the name of the delicious stuff inside — it's also the name of the cone-lidded clay pot traditionally used to cook it! LI>
  • Curry powder comes in varying degrees of spiciness, so keep an eye on what you buy and make sure it matches your love of heat.
