Modern Moroccan

SEE EVENT DETAILS
Moroccan food is brimming with spices, color and flavor, and it’s having a moment in the food world right now, with chefs like Mourad Lahlou opening his beautiful restaurants, Mourad and Aziza in San Francisco.
Our modern Moroccan menu pulls ingredients from the Mediterranean and California to give this centuries-old cuisine an updated twist. It’s fun to be able to incorporate traditional spice blends and ways of cooking with modern ingredients and techniques.
This class will start with grilled prawns with chermoula, a green, herb laden spice blend that is great with fish, as well as roasted squash and cauliflower. The heirloom carrot and kale salad is a new favorite of mine and is fantastic with traditional flavors like raisins, almonds and olives. The colors are beautiful make the salad pop, plus it has a spicy kick from the harissa-cumin vinaigrette.
The main course of ras el hanout rubbed lamb is a classic pairing. The spice blend means “head of the shop” in Arabic and it’s usually a blend of what the spice seller thinks are his best spices. It’s fabulous rubbed on lamb, chicken or stirred into rice. The herbed yogurt sauce and preserved lemon salsa that we’ll serve with the lamb are bright and fresh and both are great accompaniments. And the couscous gratin that we’ll serve alongside the lamb is full or fall flavors.
Lastly, for dessert, a personal favorite of mine, pistachio ice cream with wine soaked Mission figs and rosewater-honey crisps. If you’re feeling adventurous this month, then this is the class for you! 
We plan on making this class a party and we’d love to have you join. The class is very hands on, and each guest or couple will take home a recipe packet at the end. We will provide a cheese & charcuterie board to snack on while cooking and aprons for guests to wear during class. You can BYO, or purchase bottles of wine and beer at Cookhouse.MENU
