Taktouka is a silky, smoky Moroccan salad of roasted peppers and tomatoes gently cooked with garlic, cumin, and olive oil. The finished dish is savory, lightly spicy, and bright with fresh cilantro and lemon.

Tender sweet peppers are packed with a fragrant mixture of beef, rice, onion, and warm spices, then baked gently in a bright tomato sauce. The result is comforting and richly savoury, with soft peppers, juicy filling, and a sauce made for spooning over every bite.
