Chicken and Ramp Tajine
When I was a young boy I used to ‘steal’ my mother’s cookbooks and read them late into the night. The dishes took me to far-off exotic places. One of my favorite authors was Paula Wolfert. Her 1973 classic cookbook, "Couscous and Other Good Food from Morocco" would captivate me like no other. Her words taught me the awesome power that food has to transport people somewhere else - to tell stories and share distant cultures. In a large way, she is responsible for my relationship with food and helped shape my career as a chef.
Moroccan chicken simmered with chickpeas and turnips.
2 tbsp olive oil
1 chicken cut into 16 pieces
10 wild ramps sliced, see notes
1 “ piece of ginger root, peeled and chopped fine
2 sweet onions sliced thinly
1 cup chicken broth
1 tsp white pepper
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1 large pinch of saffron
1 tsp turmeric
2 tsp fine sea salt
14 oz can chickpeas drained
1 lemon (juiced)
Light charcoal in your majmar (Moroccan charcoal grill). You can cook your tajine over a burner at a low temperature.
Put the tajine on the fire and add the oil, onions, ramp stems, and ginger.
Mix the broth with all your spices then add to the onions. Add the chickpeas and chicken, cover with the tajine cover, and cook gently for 1 hour. You may need to add more stock periodically if the tajine dries out.
Add the ramp greens and lemon juice, cover, and let cook until 30 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and tender. Adjust the seasonings to your taste and serve.

      I have never tried using an air fryer - mostly because I only eat fried things once or twice a year. Give it a shot and let me know. You could also shallow fry or even saute. They may not have the same crunchy exterior but they still will be great.

    Great video Francois. Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought daubes were supposed to cook in a minimal amount of liquid. Couldn't you skip the marinade and tomatoes and cook it in its own juices? Almost like a Moroccan tajine. Fennel have a lot of moisture and are delicious when caramelized and concentrated. You've got my creative juices flowing here, pun intended. I think I'm going to try this in my Dutch oven. I'll let you know how it goes.

    • @FrancoisdeMelogue
      @FrancoisdeMelogue 4 місяці тому
