Method

  1. Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Scatter the veg over a couple of baking trays, drizzle with half the oil, season, then rub the oil over the veg with your hands to coat. Roast for 30 mins until tender and beginning to brown.
  2. Meanwhile, fry the spices in the remaining oil for 1 min - they should sizzle and start to smell aromatic. Tip in the tomatoes, apricots, honey and a can of water. Simmer for 5 mins until the sauce is slightly reduced and the apricots plump, then stir in the veg and some seasoning. Serve with couscous or jacket potatoes.

IF YOU WANT TO USE A SLOW COOKER...

Give this Moroccan one pot some extra time. Mix the vegetables, oil, spices, tomatoes, apricots and honey in your slow cooker, cover and cook on Low for 6-8 hours until the veg is tender.

    I really liked the flavours of this recipe. the spices and sweet complemented each other well. Although I love parsnips, i thing the texture of them in this dish was a bit strange. I might try squash as some recommended or even things like chick peas, cauliflower, dwarf beans or even edamame beans.

    this is really yummy. I've made this a few times. I love parsnips but not in this recipe. I usually add squash and chickpeas though.

    Fab - used it to use up New Year's day leftovers (swede, parsnip, spuds, carrots & leeks). Didn't have any apricots, but used flaked almonds instead. Served with lemon cous cous - delicious!

    Lovely dish, easy to chop and change with and use different veg. Would recommend using sweet potato if you're a fan of it.

    This was very nice served with couscous. I will be making it again but cutting down on the amount of apricots and maybe adding a sweet pepper instead of a parsnip. It's so easy to make and the portion size is very generous. Well worth a try.

    Tastes nice, but not strictly a tagine. Veggies weren't cooked sufficiently, so I put it all into a roasting tin and back into the oven for at least another half hour. Think it was probably in for closer to an hour and I still found the carrots hard. But it did have a good taste. Would modify this recipe if I were to cook it again.

    Whole family enjoyed this. I did put a little extra water in near the end of cooking as it was getting a little dry. Froze and defrosted no probs and tasted even better!

    I took a bit of a risk and made this for the first time when we had vegetarian guests. I needn't have worried - the recipe is straightforward and everybody pronounced it delicious. Like some other reviewers I'm not a great lover of parsnips but it's a "universal" recipe and it will be easy to substitute something else next time.

    Yummy :) Tried it for a group of veggie friends who came over and was a bit concerned as I don't normally do new recipes for guests, but this was good and nice and simple for lots of people. The only things I would say are; needed an hour to cook the veg (and I didn't leave the chunks that big) and it could have done with more of the spices for my taste, and definitely lots of salt and pepper. Otherwise, very yummy with coriander and toasted almond couscous.
