Tagine on the Kamado

So after seeing a Tagine at a Le Creuset store a few years back I have been curious about them, but scared by the cost.   A tagine is a ceramic cooking dish common to Moroccan cooking.  I like middle eastern food and the concept was interesting. About six months ago I came across a ceramic one at an estate sale for 5 bucks or so.  It sat and sat collecting dust, but with a little fore thought and a free Sunday, I decided to give it a chance.  I also wanted to try my hand at Rak’s naan from the Kamado Guru Forum.

Dough in the kitchenaid…I might have made a mistake in not letting the yogurt and milk warm up. I don’t have central air, so things usually heat up pretty fast here.

I have stretched out the naan, punctured it, and glazed with butter.

For the Tagine recipe, I used Dave’s adaptation of a recipe…and ended up adapting it myself.  I left out the parsley and lemon zest, it was still pretty darn good.  I would definitely recommend this recipe!

Enjoy!

Has anybody else had any experience with a Tagine?  This recipe while a bit time intensive was fun to do, smelled great, and was fairly simple.  I will definitely use it again.
