Vegetable and Chickpea Tagine with Dried Apricots Recipe

Vegetable Tagine Recipe

This recipe is one of my all-time favourite recipes for using up leftover vegetables. It can be made in a tagine or a pot. My tip is to add dried apricots for a touch of sweetness and some chilli flakes for extra heat. It can be eaten as a main or side dish for Sunday roast.
