Moroccan Spice Rub
Souk El Had d’Agadir
My Moroccan spice rub came from my travels around Morocco in 2018. I became good friends with the locals in Taghazout who kindly took me to the Souk El Had d’Agadir market (40 mins away) to get the best spices for the best price!
I paid 200 Moroccan Dirham for 1 kg for my Chicken and Halloumi Moroccan Wrap recipe. They will try and charge you around 600-800 FYI. This vibrant spice blend makes an excellent addition to my easy lamb stew.
The most commonly used ingredients in Moroccan Spice Rub are:
- Cumin seeds
- Cardamom pods
- Cinnamon sticks
- Dried Ginger
- Coriander seeds
- Nutmeg
- Aniseed
- Cloves
- Turmeric
However, I came to Morocco to create my own spice blend and this is the outcome… Your taste buds will thank me later!


This is a super easy, crispy chorizo, spicy tomato and chickpea baked eggs. You can make this easily in bulk and store in the freezer to save time in the future.
