Tajine Tajine A tajine or tagine (Moroccan Arabic طجين tažin, from Arabic: طاجن tājun; Tifinagh: ⵜⴰⵊⵉⵏ) is a Maghrebi dish which is named after the earthenware pot in which it is cooked. It is also called a Maraq/marqa in North Africa. From Moroccan Arabic طجين "tažin", from Arabic طاجن "tājun" "shallow earthen pot", from "tagēnon" "frying-pan, saucepan". The tagine dates back to Harun al-Rashid who was a ruler of the Early Muslim conquests. The earliest writings about the concept of cooking in a tajine appear in the famous "One Thousand and One Nights", an Arabic-language story collection from the ninth century.
