Critical Success Points

  • Form meatballs that hold together well (not over‑worked).
  • Simmer the meatballs long enough for them to absorb the sauce.
  • Grill the peppers to achieve a smoky flavor.

Safety Warnings

  • Handle hot oil carefully to avoid splatters.
  • Cook ground meat through (internal temperature ≥71 °C) to eliminate bacteria.
  • Use gloves or a thick cloth when handling the hot tagine.
