How to Make Vegetarian Tagine

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Peel and chop 2 large parsnips, 2 large turnips, 2 large carrots, and 1 large onion into 1-inch pieces.
  3. In a large oven-safe pot or Dutch oven, combine the chopped vegetables with 1 cup dried apricots (halved or quartered if large), 1/2 cup pitted prunes, 2 teaspoons ground turmeric, 1 tablespoon ground cumin, 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, and 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro.
  4. Pour in 4 cups of vegetable broth, ensuring all vegetables are mostly submerged.
  5. Cover the pot and transfer it to the preheated oven. Bake for 3 hours, or until the vegetables are tender and the flavors have melded.
  6. Remove from oven and garnish with extra fresh cilantro before serving. Serve with couscous for a complete meal.
