Sweet Chermoula Seared Beef
After training at Leiths School of Food and Wine, Nargisse Benkabbou started blogging and sharing her Moroccan recipes “with a twist” and has just launched her debut cook book Casablanca: My Moroccan Food. Each recipe that Nargisse produces is a celebration of her heritage with a care for simplicity and modernity. While she has a strong grasp of traditional Moroccan cuisine, her ultimate goal is to inspire and bring “a breath of fresh air” to Moroccan food.
