الرّوز مْبْخّْرْ بْمَطيشة/Moroccan Style Spicy Rice with Tomatoes / Riz cuit à la marocaine bien épicé

Kamal calls it "Grand'ma's rice"! I bet there are no traditional recipes available on the net for most of the dishes many of us grew up with! One of my best memories of my mother's cooking is this yummy steamed rice dish that I learnt from her.  She used this method to cook her rice to be either served as a dessert, called Seffa Rice, served with almond, cinnamon, icing sugar and raisins or she served it with a very delicious tomato sauce and this is what I will be posting tonight.  Both ways are so tasty and simple, just like all her traditional Moroccan recipes.

After trying cooking steamed rice many times myself, my family and I have found this way to cook rice to be one of our favourite, because when steamed and cooked, each grain of rice comes out separate and distinct, yet completely tender! Lovely!

Mother's cooking is the best, I agree, smiles.

So glad to see you back. I have missed you so much!!

My mother makes a rice recipe that I have never been able to duplicate, but I know it has a lot of curry in it, so good!

I never learned to steam rice; my mother, Japanese, taught me to make sticky rice, better for chopsticks, I think, smiles.

The sauce looks delicious! Love all the wonderful spices. YUMMMMM
