Injecting a taste of true Moroccan flavours to the famed seaside village of Jimbaran, Balique is the vintage cafe-style eatery owned and decorated by Moroccan-born Zohra Boukhari. Every year, Zohra returns to her homeland with her parents to visit family, and as soon as they touch down, their first stop is a traditional bite of famous Moroccan skewered kebabs. Luckily for us, Zohra wanted to share these culinary memories with her guests at Balique, reproducing her favourite (and ours) Moroccan Spiced Chicken Kebab here in Bali.
Using Balinese-grown cumin, coriander, flat parsley, turmeric and saffron that makes the Moroccan cuisine so unique, these fresh and fruitful ingredients are what makes these kebabs so scrumptious. They are authentically marinated in these oriental spices and served with a very herby and refreshing tabbouleh and a homemade harissa sauce. Each bite offers an unmistakeable taste of the Mediterranean with complex notes of herbs, spices and peppery piquancies.
