Marrakech: 3-Hour Open-Air Moroccan Cooking Course

Have you always dreamed of colorful unfamiliar exotic spices, and preparing a simple but exquisite tagine with the freshest ingredients? Then this hands-on cooking class is for you..

You'll be picked up in lively Jemaa El Fna and guided to our Riad by one of our employees. There, the lead chef will be waiting for you with a mint tea to unwind. The ingredients will be prepared for your cooking experience.

In the courtyard kitchen, you'll work under expert instruction, cooking an exquisite meal. While your tagine cooks over the fire, you'll prepare a selection of Moroccan salads that serve as the prelude to every Moroccan meal, learn about the unique flavors of preserved lemon, rose water, and ras el hanout – and how Moroccan cuisine harmonizes sweet, salty, and aromatic notes.

The experience ends with a shared meal in the serene setting of the riad or on the rooftop terrace, as you wish. Enjoy a good Moroccan wine with your own meal - if you so wish, and linger after your cooking adventure for some mint tea or coffee.

Your cooking course can be tailored to your wishes: we offer vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options.
