Khlii: The Iconic Moroccan Meat Confit.

Welcome to episode 5 of my series, Classic Moroccan Recipes For Eid al-Adha. Today, I’m preparing an express version of classic meat confit. Typically the meat is dried before preserving in fat, but this version allows you to have those same flavors in a fraction of the time. 
⁣⁣
Express Khlii⁣
1.75lbs boneless beef or lamb shoulder, thinly sliced ⁣
1.5T ground coriander⁣
1t cumin⁣
1/2t black pepper⁣
2.5t salt ⁣
5 garlic cloves, minced ⁣
1/2c olive oil ⁣
6oz beef suet or beef tallow ⁣
⁣
Combine beef, spices, salt, garlic and olive oil in a large bowl and toss until evenly coated.  Cover and marinate overnight. The next day, add marinated meat to a dutch oven and add suet or tallow. Cook over low heat until the fat is melted. Cover and cook over low heat for 3 hours stirring occasionally until meat is dry and can be pulled apart. Place meat and cooking fat in a sterilized jar, ensuring meat is covered completely in fat. Add extra tallow or olive oil to cover, if needed.  Let cool before covering.  Store in the refrigerator for up to one month. ⁣
⁣
Khlii & Egg Tagine ⁣
1c khlii meat & fat ⁣
4 eggs ⁣
Pinch of cumin ⁣
⁣
In the base of a tagine or skillet, heat meat until the fat is melted and bubbling.  Sprinkle with cumin and crack eggs on top. Gently break each yolk and cover. Cook for 2-3 minutes over medium low heat until the eggs are cooked. Enjoy with crusty bread and mint tea or coffee. ⁣
