Kathryn, what a wonderful sounding blend of spices. I can just imagine the aroma and how delicious it must taste. What a lovely gift that was and now for you to share the recipe with us… thank you! I hope you have a beautiful weekend!

Thank you for linking to this on Twitter. I was going to ask you for the recipe.

I just had a brainwave. I’m going to mix this together for my brother (excellent cook with a fussy palate) and send it to him for Christmas. I"ll be making up his parcel later this week and was a bit stumped at what to include. Thanks and thanks, Kathryn.

No worries Elaine – it really is a fantastic mix and I use it all the time. Originally it was given to me by my mum, as a Christmas present. Along with some of this mixed spice blend. While the latter is my recipe, it was still lovely to get a batch pre-made. The two made an excellent present.

And the Moroccan mix is one I’ve used over and over and over.

We just used this mixture in our rissoles – they tasted excellent – moroccan spiced rissoles, greek salad and turkish bread – a feast of nations! :-)

Thank you!! I refuse to buy spice mixes in the jar because they are expensive, have to be used in a week and never taste as good as home made ones. Now I can finally make spicy Moroccan food. Hooray!
