Moroccan food is unlike any other cuisine in the world. With its mix of spices and flavors, it’s no wonder that so many people love it.
Being of Moroccan origins and thousands of miles away from my home, all I can say is I have always been fascinated by the food of my beloved country.
Moroccan dishes are a perfect fusion of Berber, Arab, Moorish, Mediterranean, and African influences.
The food is popular because of its bold flavors, colorful decoration, and variety of native spices. It is also known for being very hearty and filling.
The good news is that Moroccan food is becoming more and more popular around the world, so it is easier to find Moroccan restaurants or ingredients to cook Moroccan dishes if traveling to Morocco is not an option for you.
But if you’re ever in Morocco, be sure to try some of these 40 best Moroccan foods & Dishes! So, get your appetite ready, and let’s dive into the delicious world of Moroccan food!
Traditional Moroccan Dishes
Moroccan Couscous
Couscous ‘Seksu’ is the national dish of Morocco. Every Friday after Jumuaa prayers, Moroccans around the world gather around a large clay plate to feast on the traditional Moroccan Couscous.
Originally a Berber dish, the Moroccan couscous is a steamed wheat grain (sometimes semolina grains) topped with 7 different veggies and meat or chicken.
The couscous is usually served with Leben, a famous Berber drink that is made by letting milk ferment for a few hours and then shaking it until you get a sour delicious drink.

Moroccan Tagine (Tajine)
Meet an age-old Moroccan Amazigh tradition of cooking food in a unique dome-shaped clay pot. Tagine is a Moroccan dish that’s named after the pot cooked in.
This world-famous food can be made with chicken or meat or vegetables only if requested but not common for Moroccans since they LOVE their meat :P.
The Tagine is made by cooking the meat in a mix of exotic Moroccan spices, and onions, and then topping it up with either vegetable, green olives, or nuts.
What I like about the Moroccan Tagine is the beautiful presentation and that it is always served with bread (Khobz). I love the Moroccan Khobz!

Moroccan Rfissa
Another favorite food in Morocco is this one. Rfissa is a very popular dish in Morocco during celebrations.
It is traditionally made with Msemen pastry bread (Found in Moroccan breakfasts), chicken, lentils, and broth.
This Moroccan savory dish cannot be served without its two main ingredients, the Fenugreek spice, and Ras El Hanout a blend of several spices.
In addition to the mouthwatering taste, Rfissa is known to be good for health, especially for women recovering from childbirth and that’s why Rfissa is present at every newborn party in Morocco (S’boua)!

Moroccan Chicken With Preserved Lemon
Chicken with preserved lemon and olives is another dish that Moroccans love to serve on happy occasions such as weddings.
As the name speaks for the dish, it is made with chicken slowly cooked with spices, garlic, and onions, and flavored with homemade preserved lemon and green olives.
Sometimes, the chicken can be cooked with spices, then roasted or fried to get that dark brown color before serving it with lemon and olives.
Djaj Mhemer can be served in a Tagine or a beautifully decorated plate along with Moroccan bread.

Moroccan Lamb with prunes
Slowly cooked on a coal fire, that’s how Moroccans serve you the most tender and jaw-dropping meat dish.
Lamb meat is cooked with garlic, saffron, ginger, onions, and spices then topped with syrup-cooked prunes, and finally decorated with fried almonds.
Lamb or beef tagines with prunes are the best food you can try in local restaurants in Morocco.
This recipe is also quite easy to try at home, and you don’t need a Tagine pot. A conventional pot with a heavy bottom can do just fine.

Kefta Tajine (Moroccan Meatball Tagines)
Meatball (Kefta) tagine is a heavenly delicious meal that you can have for lunch or dinner. The mincemeat is seasoned with a lot of cumin, paprika, and herbs before being shaped into small balls and cooked slowly in a tomato sauce.
The last 10 minutes is when the egg mix is poured to add a fabulous touch and taste to the meatballs.
The result is a light, delicious, and filling dish served with homemade Moroccan bread. It’s a must-try Moroccan food when you visit.

Moroccan Fish Tagine
Can I have a fish Tagine? Yep, you can! Moroccans are so creative with their Tagine recipes. They can make a tagine out of everything, even fish. You can have Sardine meatballs Tagine or a whole fish Tagine seasoned with veggies or just tomato sauce.
I like sardine meatballs more, so if you are a fish lover, try it on your next trip to Morocco.

Moroccan Roasted Lamb
Lamb Mechoui is surprisingly one of the most delicious foods you can try in Morocco, especially in Marrakech. It is also a unique and crazy experience given how it’s cooked.
Usually, the Mechoui is made by wrapping a whole sheep like a popsicle and cooking in a very hot and big pit hole where they can stuff five sheep at a time (Wow!)
The result is insane, a jaw-dropping saucy and tender meat. And you can choose your cut from wherever you want, the leg, the shoulder, the head, the choice is all yours.
The best place to try Mechoui meat in Morocco is the Mechoui Alley in Marrakech.
Moroccan Grilled Liver
The Eid Al Adha celebration in Morocco wouldn’t be complete without Boulfaf. Boulfaf is a spiced and coal-grilled lamb liver and heart with fat (optional).
After the meat (liver and heart pieces) are nicely grilled on a coal fire, they are cut into small cubes, wrapped in pieces of fat, put again on fire for a few minutes, and finally seasoned with salt and pepper and served.
This delicious Moroccan dish is hard to find in restaurants and to try it you have to be invited by a Moroccan family during Eid celebrations.
Make it at home: Moroccan Boulfaf Recipe
Moroccan Eggs & Preserved Meat
We know eggs but what is Khlii? Khlii (or Khlea) is a kind of dried and preserved meat or let’s say a type of jerky in Moroccan cuisine.
Traditionally it’s made by marinating beef with lots of spices and garlic. The meat is then sundried and finally preserved in fat. Sounds unhealthy right? WHO CARES!!! You should try the Khlii and eggs dish for breakfast when visiting Morocco. It’s super tasty.
The Khlii meat is first sauteed for a few minutes then the eggs are added et voila Besehha as Moroccans say! On a serious note, khlii is not consumed in large quantities.

Tanjia
If there is one food you shouldn’t miss in Morocco, it is Tangia (or Tanjia). This Marrakesh specialty dish can be hard to find outside Marrakech and even if you do find it, I believe it won’t taste as good as the one found in Marrakech.
Tangia is not to be confused with Tagine. It’s different. Tangia is traditionally a few chunks of nicely spiced lamb meat cooked in a clay amphora for hours in a traditional street oven.
When the meat is seasoned with various ingredients including herbs, spices, garlic, saffron, cumin, turmeric, and lastly Smen (a homemade salty butter) it is then put in the amphora, sealed, and sent to the oven to be buried in hot coal ashes.
After a few good hours, the clay amphora is taken out and served in a Tagine (the pot) with some homemade cooked bread.

Moroccan Paella (Seafood Rice)
Paella is originally a Spanish dish from the Valencia region. However, the Spanish recipe has traveled to its neighboring country Morocco, and become one of its identity seafood dishes.
The Moroccan version of Paella is Chicken and shellfish (sometimes other seafood options are incorporated) marinated in Coriander Leaf, Cumin Seed, and Paprika, cooked with rice and stock for a delicious meal.

Moroccan Grilled Sardines
Grilled sardines are common street food in Morocco and it’s usually found sold near beaches. Morocco enjoys its extensive coastline providing an abundant supply of seafood.
There are many ways of serving sardines in Morocco for example fried sardines, However, the grilled ones are healthier and way more delicious to enjoy on a beachy day in Morocco.
If you want to try the tastiest Moroccan grilled sardines, visit Essaouira fishing port. You won’t regret it!

Moroccan Steamed Sheep Head
The sheep head is cleaned and steamed and cut into pieces then seasoned with salt, pepper, and cumin. This Moroccan dish is made every Eid Al Adha.
In Marrakech, you can purchase a whole head or even half and enjoy the soft and tender meat. My favorite part of the sheep’s head is the super-soft cheek meat.
Moroccan homemade Bread
You are probably wondering why Moroccan bread is in the main dishes section. Well, Moroccan bread or Khobz is an integral part of every Moroccan table and it’s served with almost every meal of the day from breakfast to supper.
Unlike Arabic bread, Moroccan whole wheat bread is a thicker round bread, crusty from the outside and fluffy from the inside. In Morocco, Khobz serves to eat all the main dishes by hand like the renewed tagines, salads, and more.

Pastilla/Bstila (Moroccan Chicken or Seafood Pie)
Pastilla refers to different types of food in Russia and the Philippines. However, in Morocco, Pastilla also spelled Bastilla means something very yummy, a crispy dough pie with meat fillings.
The Moroccan Pastilla has an unusual mixture of sweetness and salt that can wake your taste buds up for sure. There are two main versions of Moroccan Pastilla, one with poultry and one with seafood.
Pastilla is generally served as a starter for special meals and occasions including wedding celebrations.
Briouat (Moroccan Samosas)
Moroccan Briouats are sweet or savory stuffing wrapped in filo dough and deep-fried or baked in the oven. But the version sold in Morocco is the deep-fried one.
Briouat stuffings can be made of meat (chicken and beef) or simply cheese and vegetables. These triangle-shaped treats are usually served in restaurants as a starter with main Moroccan dishes along with other appetizers such as spiced olives and Zaalouk.
They are also Moroccan street food but those are stuffed mostly with tuna or chicken. If you visit Morocco during Ramadan, you will find Brouiat on every single Ramadan food table as they are an integral part of Ramadan food in Morocco.
Harira/H’rira (Moroccan Tomato & Lentils Soup)
Harira is a traditional Moroccan soup made of tomato sauce, onions, lentils, chickpeas, spices, and a lot of fresh coriander and parsley.
Harira is considered a Ramdan special in Morocco. Ramadan Iftar (breakfast) can’t be complete without a bowl of Harira or two. Don’t worry! Harira is also made and served even outside of Ramadan in some restaurants and cafes in Morocco.
Local Tip: To enjoy the Moroccan Harira even better try adding a sparkle of sweetness like Chebbakia or dates to the meal.

Bissara (Moroccan Kidney Beans Soup)
While Harira stands out from the crowd for being a very famous soup in Morocco, Bissara deserves a mention for being a very much loved dip during the cold and snowy months in the country.
Bissara is made of pureed broad beans flavored with mainly olive oil, lemon juice, and lots of cumin, and it is commonly served for breakfast.
It might not be easy to find this dish everywhere but if you go to the countryside villages you will have better luck tasting it.
Zaalouk (Moroccan Eggplant Salad)
Zaalouk is a Moroccan salad of cooked eggplants, tomatoes, and peppers. The eggplant and peppers are first grilled, peeled, and then mixed with the tomatoes and sauteed in olive oil, garlic, and spices.
This Moroccan easy dish is a great starter (salade) that goes with meat dishes like Lamb and chicken Tagine. The starter is usually served cold on small plates around the main dish and eaten ideally with Moroccan bread.
If this sounds delicious to you, worry not! because you won’t need to book a flight to taste Zaalouk, it is an easy recipe that you can make at home in 15 minutes. Try it!

This staple Moroccan dish is found in other cuisines around the world like Turkish cuisine for example.
Spiced olives
You will get a small plate full of spiced olives before or with every Tagine you order in Morocco. Morocco is one of the largest producers of olives and olive oil. They taste pretty good, to be honest, and I love olives.
Moroccan Tuna Bocadillo
Tuna Bocadillo sandwiches are a popular street food in Morocco. This Spanish-influenced tuna sandwich can include a variety of stuffings including boiled potatoes, olives (black and green), onions, boiled eggs, and the spicy Harissa sauce if you choose to add it.
The bread used for the Moroccan Bocadillo is usually French baguettes but sometimes they use half a loaf of Khobz (round Moroccan bread).
Moroccan Sweets and Pastries
Chebbakia (Moroccan Ramadan treat)
The rose-shaped sweet pastry is a Ramadan must in Morocco. It goes so well with Harira soup and dates. Chebbakia is made of a special Chebbakia dough and rolled to get the unique shape then deep-fried until golden, and finally dipped in homemade syrup and sprinkled with sesame seeds.

The nutty ground is then mixed with melted butter or warmed olive oil. Unfortunately, Sellou is not commonly served in restaurants and cafes but it can be found on the menu of some Riads in Morocco.

Kab El Ghazal is a crescent-shaped cookie. The cookies are made by stuffing almond paste into a delicate pastry. The cookie is shaped like a crescent and baked in the oven.
The almond paste is flavored with rose or orange flower water and cinnamon which gives the cookies a unique taste. Kab El Ghazal is usually made on special occasions only such as weddings, and baby showers but is easily found in restaurants and bakeries.
Ghoribas (Moroccan cracked cookies)
Moroccan Ghoribas is one of my favorite cookies. Its crunchy and yet melt-in-the-mouth goodness is so irresistible. In Morocco, you can distinguish a good Ghoriba cookie from its surface cracks. The more cracks it has the better it tastes.
The good news is that Ghoriba is sold everywhere even at local grocery shops. Don’t miss out on the experience of trying this street food cookie.
Msemmen (Moroccan Traditional Pancakes)
Msemmen is a traditional flatbread served for Moroccan breakfasts and evening snacks. It is usually served with honey and Moroccan mint tea or spiced coffee.

Moroccan Nous Nous Coffee
You won’t be able to find your good morning cup of coffee in Morocco but I’m quite sure there are other good Moroccan coffee alternatives. the popular Nous-Nous is one of them. We wrote a whole post about coffee in Morocco check it out.
Moroccan Leben
Leben is homemade fermented milk. The process of making Leben in Morocco is quite long and hard as it takes up to 2 days to get through the whole process of fermenting, shaking, and finally removing the butter.
However, the result is very delicious. You can buy Leben from Supermarkets in Morocco but the homemade one is the best you can have.
Fresh Sugarcane Juice
My husband and I love freshly made sugarcane juice. The sugarcane juice is extracted from peeled sugarcane sticks by crushing them in a machine. We also like adding the optional fresh ginger. A great kick to the sweet taste of the juice.
The juice is usually made and sold in the streets around Morocco. Amazing! A full cup of sugarcane will cost you 10Dh only (1$ ).
Zaazaa (Moroccan dessert)
With a funny name that’s impossible to pronounce correctly, Zaazaa is a widely popular drink across Morocco. ZaaZaa means scary in Moroccan slang language which is true. This juice is scary for people who care about sugar levels.
The juice is loaded with a ton of sugary and sweet ingredients. It includes multiple levels each level has a type of ingredient.
The ingredients will vary from one cafe or restaurant to another but they all include fruits like strawberries, and bananas, dried nuts, and dates, Chocolates, and chocolate biscuits like Kitkat and Oreos, fresh cream, a lot of creams, chocolate syrup, and more.
This is one of my favorite Moroccan food experiences. It’s a must-try
Babbouch (Snails Soup)
Snails soup and Ras El Hanout spice are a combination of spicy distinctive flavors.
The main ingredient of the soup is of course the snails. This Moroccan dish is made by stewing the snails in a broth with a mix of spices and herbs called Ras El Hanout which includes thyme, aniseed, Arabic gum, mint, caraway, and many more.
The rich dish is known to be very good for health to what it contains. Snail soup is generally a Moroccan street food that is sold by vendors with carts. They are usually found in traditional markets and busy areas in the city like famous streets.
I highly recommend trying this Moroccan food but if you can’t stand the idea of eating the snail try the soup instead. They normally serve the snails with the soup but you can request only the soup. However, don’t drink more than one cup as a start. It’s quite strong.
Sauteed Sheep’s Brain
We mentioned the sheep’s head meat, right? But in Morocco, nothing goes to waste. They also make a hearty dish from the brain. And you know what, it’s crazy delicious if you can handle the zesty texture.
The dish is a sautee of the sheep’s brain with some tomatoes and herbs and that’s it.
Unfortunately, you can’t order this special Moroccan dish everywhere in Morocco. It’s mostly found in Jama El Fna in Marrakech.

How to avoid food poisoning in Morocco
With so much delicious food to sample in Morocco, there is always the possibility of food poisoning. To avoid it, here are a few tips:
- Choose restaurants that look clean and reputable.
- Avoid street vendors if possible.
- Make sure all fruits and vegetables are washed thoroughly before eating them.
- Check for signs of spoilage on meat or fish before consuming them.
- Make sure all food is cooked thoroughly and served hot.
Moroccan food and allergies
If you have allergies to certain foods, it’s important to be aware of what Moroccan dishes contain. Moroccan cuisine often uses nuts, legumes, and dairy products.
If you are allergic to any of these ingredients, make sure to ask your server about the ingredients in each dish before ordering.
This can help prevent an unpleasant surprise when your food arrives.
Extra Tips

Most Moroccan dishes are meat-based so eating too many things and mixing up all kinds of food can do injustice to your stomach.
