Recipe Description
Vegan Rfissa Bil Khodra is a delightful twist on the traditional Moroccan dish, Rfissa. Traditionally prepared with chicken and lentils, this vegan version replaces animal products with a colorful medley of vegetables, while still preserving the essence and flavors of the original dish. The dish is built around a base of msimen, Moroccan flatbread, which is then topped with a richly spiced vegetable stew. The spices, notably fenugreek seeds, saffron, and ras el hanout, infuse the vegetables with depth and warmth, creating a hearty and comforting meal. The inclusion of lentils ensures the dish remains a good source of protein, making it not only a feast for the senses but also nourishing for the body. Perfect for a family dinner or a special occasion, Vegan Rfissa Bil Khodra invites you to explore the richness of Moroccan cuisine while adhering to a plant-based diet.
Ingredients
- 1 cup of green lentils
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons ras el hanout
- 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 1/2 teaspoon fenugreek seeds
- 1 pinch of saffron
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 pieces of msimen (Moroccan flatbread)
- 4 cups of vegetable broth
Steps:
- Prepare the vegetables by cutting them into bite-sized pieces.
- In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the mixed vegetables and sauté until they start to soften.
- Add the lentils to the pot along with ras el hanout, turmeric, fenugreek seeds, and saffron. Stir well to coat everything in the spices.
- Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the lentils are tender and the vegetables are cooked through, about 40 minutes.

- To serve, place pieces of msimen in each bowl and ladle the vegetable and lentil stew over the bread. Garnish with chopped cilantro. Serve immediately.
