When I first got married, my husband wanted me to make Moroccan fish like he had in his house growing up. (His father is from Morocco.) The problem is that all his relatives that I consulted with had different recipes and methods, and of course nobody used measurements. Baruch HaShem after many trial and errors I came up with my own version that everyone goes nuts over. It’s my honor to share it with you!

Directions

Mix vegetables with oil and spices in a 9×13 pan.

Place the tilapia on top of the vegetables; slightly digging them in. Using your hands, rub the oil mixture from the vegetables over fish.

Cover with parchment paper and tin foil to seal in moisture.

Bake covered at 375 degrees F for 1.5- 2 hours (depending on the oven). You will know that it’s ready when the potatoes are soft.
