Today I went to the markets for the first time to pick up ingredients for a Moroccan tagine I saw on Pinterest. I’ve never liked food markets and being dragged there by mama as a kid was torture! But believe it or not, today it was all very exciting; handing over only £1 for each bowl of fruit or vegetable – I’m still amazed at how cheap it is, it’s brilliant! Anyway the Pinterest recipe didn’t go so well and I ended up going with the flow and making up my own. It’s simple but filled with flavour for all you seafood lovers! I hope you enjoy it.
