About Us — Welcome to Riad Kitchen, a recipe website from Meknes, Morocco, sharing Moroccan and global comfort food. Our recipes are written to be clear, practical, and enjoyable to cook at home, whether you are making a slow-simmered tagine for the first time or a familiar family favorite.

About Us: What We Do

Riad Kitchen specializes in Moroccan recipes, including tagines, couscous, salads, breads, and sweets, alongside global comfort dishes that suit everyday cooking. Each recipe is developed and tested in a home kitchen, with straightforward steps, everyday ingredients, and honest notes about substitutions, timing, and technique.

How we write our recipes

  • Clear ingredient lists with practical measurements.
  • Step-by-step instructions written for home cooks of all levels.
  • Tips on technique, seasoning, and storage where they genuinely help.
  • Notes on allergies and dietary needs where relevant, so you can adapt a recipe safely.

We do not publish claims we cannot support. When we describe a recipe as traditional, we

explain what makes it so, and when we adapt a dish, we say so.

What You Will Find at Riad Kitchen

Browse all recipes on our Recipes page, where you will find Moroccan tagines, couscous, salads, breads, and sweets, plus global comfort dishes, desserts, appetizers, and healthy options. Good places to start include our Moroccan Garden Salad, our Fresh Tuna Poke Bowl Recipe, and our Grilled Zucchini, Feta and Crispy Chickpea Salad. Each recipe gives you a clear ingredient list, step-by-step instructions, and practical tips, so you can cook with confidence whether it is a weeknight dinner or a dish for guests.

How to Use Our Recipes

Start by reading the ingredient list in full, then read the steps once before you begin cooking, so you know what needs chopping, soaking, marinating, or preheating. Gather everything first, because Moroccan dishes such as tagines and couscous reward a calm start and steady heat. Follow the practical measurements in each recipe, and use the tips on technique, seasoning, and storage where they genuinely help. If a recipe offers a traditional version and a home-style adaptation, it will say so, and you can choose the one that suits your time, your equipment, and the ingredients you can find. Notes on allergies and dietary needs are included where relevant, so you can adapt a recipe safely. When a dish is new to you, taste as you go and adjust salt, lemon, herbs, and heat to your own table. About Us is the place to learn how we write, test, and check every recipe before it reaches your kitchen.
