Name: Moroccan Spice Blend
Prep time: 5 min
Total time: 5 min
Ingredients: 1 tbsp ground coriander; 1 tbsp sweet paprika; 1/2 tbsp cracked black pepper; 1/2 tbsp ground cumin; 1 tsp ground cinnamon; 1 tsp ground ginger; 1 tsp cayenne pepper ((optional - leave out for a mild spice mix)); 1 tsp all spice; 1/2 tbsp brown sugar ((optional. Leave out to make this paleo and primal friendly))

JUMP TO RECIPE

This Moroccan Spice Blend is a wonderful mix of fragrant earthy spices that will lift your food and add that unmistakable Moroccan edge.

Rub this over a chicken thigh and then roast along side some sweet potato and carrots, you have a warming and effort free dinner.

Or sprinkle it over some buttered couscous, flecked with sultanas and you can drift away to dreams of dancing in the sand, wearing a silk sarong, as the sun sets.

In a sealed jar this Moroccan Spice Mix will keep for a good 6 months, longer if your spices are new.

I don't add salt to my spice mix as I like to have full control over the salt in a dish, but if you want a general all around seasoning then add ½ tbsp of table salt to the spice blend recipe.

Enjoy x

Try using this mix in my Moroccan Spiced Chicken Salad.

Love your style Claire! I wouldn't have found you if I had not been looking for Old Bay seasoning in Australia! Of course I have then looked at other parts of your website and will definitely bookmark.

What is mixed spice? Is this another of your recipes?

  Hi Vickie, mixed spice is a blend that you can buy in most supermarkets here in Australia and in the UK. It is a mixture of Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Allspice and then depending on the brand it may contain a touch of ginger and cloves.
  
  I believe it is similar to the pumpkin spice blends they sell in America.
  
  A few people have asked me about mixed spice, so I think I will get a recipe to make you own up on the blog soon, especially as it is such a wonderful blend to use at Christmas.
  
  Hope this helps x
