I never thought I would enjoy a beet salad like this. With the exception of canned beets, beets have never had a place in my kitchen. In my opinion, growing up in the city makes you scared of trying whole foods. But this Moroccan beet salad has made me want to start experimenting with beets.
As quick and simple as this recipe may be, it is still a staple of Moroccan cuisine. The feggous (cucumber) and tomato salad can be the basis to create different salads or can be eaten as is with bread or another dish. I decided to take this recipe from La Maison Arabe’s Moroccan Recipes book. However, I didn’t follow every step of the recipe. For instance, I did not seed the tomatoes since I felt it would make the salad juicier. This is all a matter of preference of course.
