(Recipes for Tajin)
Who does not like what - we do not add, otherwise we will spoil our pleasure.
For example, I don't like the smell of boiled parsley.
And black pepper is not very good, so I add chili instead.
1. Grate chicken with saffron powder or turmeric.
2. Pour 250 ml of dried apricots with boiling water, bring to a boil, reduce the heat to a minimum, close the lid and cook for 10 minutes. Then take it out of the water. Do not pour the broth!
3. Heat the oil in tajin and fry the chopped onion for 5 minutes, add ginger, paprika, peppers and salt to it.
4. Top with chicken pieces.
5. Pour dried apricots with cold water, put around the chicken and pour the broth from a saucepan.
6. Put a rewound bunch of greens on top, bring to a boil, cover and reduce heat. Cook without stirring for 20 minutes.
7. After 20 minutes add the apple directly with the skin, take out the middle and cut into 8 pieces.
8. Cook for another 10-15 minutes.
9. If it tastes dry (because the fruit can absorb most of the liquid), you can add a little water.
10. Remove the parsley and serve with a side dish.
Moroccans usually have couscous

Alexandra
julifera, thank you very much for the initiative

My fantasies are swarming: grate a whole chicken with turmeric-curry salt, leave in the refrigerator overnight. Then lightly fry it outside, you can grill in a dry frying pan only so that the crust grabs. Fry onion-ginger-garlic-spices in a small amount of olive oil in tagine, as on risotto (I would add leek and celery shoots, then put either rice with prepared chickpeas, or zucchini-eggplant-peppers, I would have apple slices or added quince. Put the chicken in the center and simmer it all under the lid. You can bunch cilantro and whole garlic, or put lemon in the chicken.

This is certainly not a Moroccan dish ...
Do you think a whole chicken will break through?
julifera
To be honest, I don't even know, I have never seen a whole chicken made on gas.
And in the oven, in theory, it should be super, if it is well salted

I have a link in my stash - like a chicken tortured they took off the skin, salted, stuffed and planted in tajin with dried apricots - and all this on gas.

It is better to start with simple meat recipes without side dishes - why - because it takes time for your "hand-eye-and everything else" to begin to feel the cooking time of different types and different sizes of meat, the measure of liquid, and already knowing this, you can cook with side dishes ...

For example:
- if you simmer the potatoes in circles and not add water, it will be damp on top for a long time and burn at the bottom, and if you transfer it, you will get not baked potatoes, but a stew;
- or the chicken, for example, turns into chewing gum, and the potatoes or rice are still raw, because the time or height setting is incorrect.

In any case, this is witchcraft over the tajin, when you look for and find an approach to it - it delivers a real thrill
julifera
A year ago, there were very few Russian-language sources, for a year the Tajiks carried away a lot of our people.

What else I like about tajin - it is suitable for everyone, not only for those who love multilevel recipes - if you are tired and have no strength to fool around - you just threw pieces of pickled meat into it, added spices to your taste and it cooks there by itself.
IRR
I, too, have small dashes into this ceramic theme. Subscribe! (their own people are everywhere)

julifera, huge respect to you for opening the topic - cooking in tajin... It's time, it's time ... It's never too late to learn.

Here is what you just described above, to a large extent, is suitable for a slow cooker. Do you have MV? Can you compare? There, too, a ceramic cauldron Interested in taste and, if any, differences (except, of course, time)
Alexandra
julifera, well, I have meat insofar as, perhaps, veal, you can have chicken and turkey breasts, potatoes do not exist in our diet at all, I cannot, and the family voluntarily refused. Rice can be whole grain, infrequently, chickpeas, mung bean, lentils can be used. In addition, if you want to fry, then in a minimum amount of oil. You can and need a lot of different vegetables and spices, especially turmeric, cinnamon, pepper, ginger, Provencal herbs. Fruit minimum.

In general, I will try on the sly, after soaking (soaked in a bathroom with cold water) and steaming with milk porridge.

It seems to me that there should be a different taste than from the Slow Cooker. Besides, here (hopefully) a little faster

The whole chicken, grated with spices and salt, in my multicooker reaches the most tender state after 65 minutes on baking, in the oven in a Tupperware plastic brazier for 2 hours. I would like to compare. But in CF I did not do it entirely.

julifera
IRR, my slow cookers are dumb, only a cartoon and a pressure cooker, in which I do not recognize meat, although my dad, for example, drags on a multi-cooker stew, and my mother from a pressure cooker, which in my understanding is practically the same.

maybe veal
Here, veal is my favorite tajin dish.

It is preparing definitely quickly, the bottom area is wide, the thermal conductivity is awesome, the current is obligatory on the divider, which is a pancake.

I generally keep quiet about legumes, I don’t even remember the last time I cooked them in stainless steel ...

I'll tell you a secret, even if there is a meter, I don't think that payment will be critical in this situation with the tajin.

In the link that I gave, the notorious Belonika speaks of tagins like this:
"I have a wonderful book by Vourad Mazouz THE MOMO,
acquired several years ago in a restaurant of the same name in London. She was the best in her nomination for several years.
And, finally, I bought myself tazhinnits. All sizes.
And here's what I can say. What I did according to these recipes in the Staubov saucepan (for stewing), believing that it was just wonderful ... This is in no way comparable with what is obtained in the tajinnitsa. Two different dishes. Just a miracle. Surprisingly, such richness and juiciness ... well, it's impossible to achieve in an ordinary, even very good saucepan ...
This I mean, if you have the opportunity to buy it, do not hesitate for a second.
I somehow, naturally, almost all the meat migrated here. When you try ... You yourself will understand everything. And the lower part ...
It just became ... my favorite stewing pan. "

MY FIRST TAJIN chicken with zucchini

After reading a variety of recipes, I tried to portray something in the Moroccan style.

1. First, I mixed the spices, guided by the most general information.

Took:
cumin (powder) and cumin (grains), white and black pepper, chili and paprika, turmeric and curry, ginger and coriander, dry garlic and mint, sumac. I also added fresh garlic and ginger. Separately I prepared 3 cinnamon sticks and a bunch of dill (I couldn't buy cilantro).

The photo was taken before I added some of the spices.
I mixed everything well and divided it into 3 parts.
I used one part for the marinade, the other two were added to the olive oil when frying vegetables and chicken

2. Marinated chicken breasts. There was a tray, about 700 BC.

Cut into cubes 8-10 cm.
Mixed marinade:
2 large cloves of garlic, minced
1/2 lemon juice
2 tbsp. l. olive oil
3 cm of ginger root - finely grated
1 tsp sea ​​salt
1 tsp brown sugar
1/3 spices

Thoroughly coated the chicken pieces, mixed and left to marinate on the table while soaping, cutting and frying vegetables and fruits.

3. Other components of tagine

3 small courgettes - cut into large slices
4 tomatoes - scalded, peeled, mashed
4 ripe peppers - chicken slices
3 large onions, finely chopped
10 pieces of shallots - whole onions
3 apples - peeled, cut into large slices, poured with juice of half a lemon
5 plums - took out the bones, divided into halves
5 dates - took out bones and cut
1 can of canned chickpeas - washed and dried
1 head of garlic - passed through a press

4. Preparation
I put the tajin on a double burner (it is believed that a divider is built in there) on a small fire, poured some oil, heated it and added 1/3 of the spices. Warmed a little, put half of the garlic and ginger, stir.
Slightly fried zucchini

Despite the late hour, my husband barely waited for the tasting - the smells spread crazy throughout the apartment. Verdict - tasty, tender, juicy, aromatic

I'll try it myself tomorrow ...
julifera
Alexandra - this is the first visit, so everything is real, in the sense of Moroccan,
super-gorgeous
And I'm afraid to throw in as many spices as Moroccans, because I don't like many of them.
And sweet fruit is also rare, because her son does not like it.

It is interesting to know how the chicken and zucchini tasted - not very sweet from such fruits or everything in moderation?

________________________ ________________________ ________________________ _
Yesterday I bought red rice for the first time, it is like unpolished, only softer and nuttier.
This is how it was written on the package - it will be ready in 30 minutes after boiling - and it happened in tagine, that is, it is very fast. And this despite the fact that my smallest light for some reason was extinguished after 20 minutes and 10 minutes out of 30, the rice just reached by itself.
True, I soaked it for an hour as recommended on the package.
Alexandra
julifera, today I will not be able to answer your question - after 4 pm I do not eat anything at all, I cooked without trying, without relying on salt-spiciness, exclusively focusing on smells.

So judging by the smells, despite even more spices than in the photo (I added cumin, smachy, chili, curry and black pepper) - not too spicy and not too hot. There was no pungent smell from the spices. There was no sour smell from plums and lemon and sweet from apples. By the way, there are very few fruits for this amount.

Even 3 sticks of cinnamon did not make my husband indignant.Although I remember that he was terribly indignant when his mother (in Khujand) poured mint and other bright spices into the soup - "the soup should smell like soup, not tea." And he does not like a very sweet fruit taste, and neither does acid. From his reaction, I believe that everything worked out in moderation.

It is a pity, I could not buy cilantro in the evening after work, everything else, even cinnamon sticks, was found in one store. I also bought whole grain couscous, I will try to master it later.

About rice.

Yesterday I whole grain milk rice did. I brought 1 liter of milk to a boil in tagine, at the same time poured boiling water over 300 g of whole unpolished rice and cooked while the milk was warming. Then I connected everything, added a little salt and stevia. It was cooked in 30 minutes, although it takes a long time to cook in pilaf ...

IRR,

So the main thing is aesthetics, you said yourself

Yesterday my husband, looking at the mountain of vegetables, asked if he needed help - to peel or cut what, or, he says, are you resting like that?

And indeed, yesterday was a truly evening of relaxation - leisurely thoughtful cooking, beautiful still lifes, delightful aromas.

And I didn’t feel deprived of what I hadn’t tried - it was already a real feast for sight, smell and aesthetic pleasure.
julifera,

Today I shifted, prepared a jar for myself - I tried it. Just right. No extra pungency and "perfumery", no acid-sweetness. After all, I took only 5 dates from dried fruits, and there are few fruits and not very sweet ones, brown sugar is the very minimum. And quite a few mashed tomatoes, so it was all mildly diluted with moisture and amount of food.
The sense of smell did not deceive me, just right

It is very interesting that even the apples did not fall apart, and the onions and zucchini are ready, but they even crunch a little tasty - like pickled ones in density

And chicken breasts are the softest, juicy and tender ...

What can be changed: I would add zucchini and chickpeas before setting. And for me, chickpeas are not enough for such an amount, I would take 2 cans (cups). Well, on top, when serving - if there is immediately a company or family - it could be sprinkled with fried pine nuts or almond petals - I had both, but since there was no solemn meal at night, I did not do it, and in the morning they would soaked.

TART TATEN IN TAJIN

It is necessary to justify the purchase of a stylish and expensive tagine from Emile Henri by 200%
Therefore, the idea of ​​the next dish arose as a result of browsing the websites of the manufacturer and an online store with this dish. From the same ceramics that can withstand use on gas and in the oven, I saw a set for making the French national inverted Tart Tatin pie. I was once offered such a set in France, but I was looking for a copper mold for the taten.

So, the technology of cooking taten involves cooking apples or other fruits in caramel on the stove, then baking together with the dough laid on top in the same form and turning the finished pie onto a dish. I have a large dish, and the bottom tajin bowl differs from the taten shape only in the absence of handles on the sides. But this difference is not essential.

To be fair, I want to say that taten can be cooked in any cast iron, ceramic or Teflon mold, stewpan, saucepan ...

So. Classic apple taten, but can be any seasonal fruit.

Today I have PLUM TATEN

Plums 1 kg - halves

Caramel:
1 tbsp. l. olive and 1 tbsp. l butter
2 tbsp. l. water
1 tbsp. l. dark honey
1 tbsp. l. dark brown sugar

Spices: 2 cinnamon sticks - add to the plums, remove before placing the dough

Pastry: Based on Stеrn's Cheap Cake, double serving

4 squirrels
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp lemon juice
140 g cottage cheese 0%
480 g 0% kefir
50 g olive oil
1 tsp stevia or 2 tbsp. l. brown sugar
1 g vanillin
1 tsp cinnamon
10 drops of rum essence - if needed
1 tsp soda
2 tsp baking powder
100 g bran
440 g whole grain flour
50 g of nuts - I have pecans
1.
Put the oil in the tajin bowl, heat over low heat, add 2 tbsp. l. hot water, sugar and honey.Dissolve and bring to a boil. Lay out the halves of the plums, cut down, add cinnamon sticks

Then after a while we turn the plums upside down and boil a little more. Turn off, take out the cinnamon, turn on the oven at 200C and prepare the dough.

2. Mix separately wet and dry components of the dough, combine, mix quickly and put in a mold on a plum.

3. Bake for about 45 minutes

4. Cool for 15 minutes and turn onto a dish

Oh, Alexandra, now I wanted to drain so much, after such and such pictures, I will have to start the oven on weekends, I have no more strength to hold on
Alexandra
julifera ,

Well, if you don't have the strength, then you need to afford

It is clear that those who have no dietary restrictions can do it on one creamy one (up to 150g), take 2-3 times more honey and sugar (although I had enough for caramel), and take the dough according to the original recipe from Stеrn (Cheap cake ) - with white flour, sugar, butter, etc.

Anyway, the dough can be anything. As an option - sand. Or the express version - purchased puff pastry.

Fruit is also any that is at hand. My favorite taten is pear.

If there are no cinnamon sticks, you can sprinkle the fruit before spreading the dough. Cinnamon goes with apples, plums, pears, cherries. The rest of the fruits - apricots, peaches, berries - do not require cinnamon.

It depends on what kind of electric stove. For induction and old pancake stoves, tajin is not very suitable, except for the oven.
