About this episode
Chef Nargisse Benkabbou discusses hands-off Moroccan recipes and meal planning with host Maggie Hoffman.
London-based chef Nargisse Benkabbou has contributed a lot of quick weeknight recipes to NYT Cooking, but in this conversation with The Dinner Plan's host Maggie Hoffman, the author of Madaq shares her preference for big batch dinners that cook low and slow. These hands-off meals don't require more prep time, but the flavors deepen in the oven or on the stove, and each dish can be used multiple ways throughout the week. Nargisse shares her perspective on meal planning, her most treasured condiments and marinades, and the links she'd send a friend looking for dinner ideas.
