Chickpea and butternut squash tagine with tender wheat

The tagine is one of the most characteristic delicacies of North Africa that got its name from the container in which it is prepared. That is to say, the tagine is the round and shallow clay pot with a particular conical lid and, at the same time, the stew that is prepared inside. The tagine is designed to preserve the juiciness and flavours of the food which results in aromatic stews. The varieties are endless. Today we prepare it with pumpkin and chickpeas, and we can use any pot we have in our kitchen
