A tagine is a North African stew cooked in a shallow, conical clay pot that goes by the same name. This chunky vegetable dish is warmly spiced like a tagine and features the common North African pairing of sweet and tart flavors. For extra depth and a touch of spiciness, swirl in a spoonful of harissa into the tagine just before serving or offer some at the table for spooning on to taste. Serve with crusty bread, warmed flatbread or couscous to soak up the delicious sauce.
Tip
Don't shortcut the prep by leaving the tomatoes whole. Slicing 2 pints of grape tomatoes may take a some time, but this step helps the tomatoes break down and cook at the same rate as the eggplant.
