Chermoula image

Chermoula is a North African marinade, used especially for fish. It also makes a great dipping sauce or salad dressing. This recipe has plenty of tang and has been adapted from one by Julie Le Clerc. I use coriander (cilantro) rather than parsley and Lee Kum Kee's Chili Garlic Sauce rather than a small red chili. I like the end product so much that I can eat it with a spoon. Yummo!

I'm not really a fan of chermoula. I find the flavor to be a bit too overpowering.

This chermoula recipe is a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I'll try using less cayenne pepper next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my chermoula turned out really bitter. I think I might have used too much cumin.

I'm not usually a fan of chermoula, but this recipe changed my mind. The combination of herbs and spices is perfect, and it really brings out the flavor of the chicken.

Chermoula is one of my favorite marinades. It's so versatile and can be used on chicken, fish, or vegetables. This recipe is a great starting point, but I like to add a bit of extra cumin and paprika.

This chermoula recipe is a keeper! The flavors are incredibly balanced and complex. I used it to marinate chicken breasts before grilling them, and they turned out so moist and flavorful.
