TSIRE POWDER MIXTURE
This recipe comes from West Africa where it is used to coat raw meat kebobs which have first been dipped in oil or beaten egg and then dusted with the powder before being cooked on a barbeque. The cooked kebabs are then dusted with more powder before being served.

SELLOU (MOROCCAN COOKIE MIXTURE)
This isn't really a cookie but that is how my husband describes it & he is from Morocco. It is a sweet powder mixture that Moroccans eat on special occasions, such as Ramadan. (I use fresh ground almond butter from a specialty store to skip the steps of frying & grinding the almonds. Make sure if you do this that the only ingredient in the almond butter is almonds.)

Steps:
- Brown the flour: This can be done up to a week prior to making the sellou. Preheat the oven to 400F (200C). Place the flour in a very large baking pan and bake for about 30 minutes or until light-to-medium golden brown.
- Stir every five minutes to prevent burning and to help the flour color evenly. When the flour is cool, sift it several times to remove any balls. Cover and store until needed.
- Toast the sesame: Spread the sesame in a single layer on a large baking sheet, and toast in a 400° F (200° C) oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until crunchy and nutty in flavor. (Or, toast the sesame in batches in a skillet over medium-low heat, stirring constantly.) When the sesame is cool, store in a covered container until needed.
- Fry the almonds: Heat 1/2 inch of oil in a large frying pan over medium heat, and fry the almonds in batches, stirring constantly, until light golden brown. The almonds will continue to darken to a richer golden brown once they're removed from the oil. Drain and cool the fried almonds.
- Note: Be careful not to let the oil get so hot that the almonds brown too quickly and take on a burnt flavor. The frying should take about five to 10 minutes for the almonds to color properly so that they are cooked inside as well as out.
- Assembling the sellou: Melt the clarified butter and set aside.
- In a very large mixing bowl, sift the browned flour, powdered sugar, spices and salt through a fine sieve. Discard any tiny balls of browned flour that remain. Use your hands to toss and thoroughly blend the mixture.
- Reserve 2-3 tbsp of unground sesames to mix into the sellou for crunch and texture. Finely grind the rest of the sesame seeds in a food processor until almost paste-like.
- Separate the almond into two bowls. Grind half the almonds to a smooth paste and the other half just until the oils are released. Add both the almonds & sesame pastes to the flour mixture.
- Next, use your hands to toss and thoroughly blend everything together. Taste and add a little more sugar or spices if desired.
- Gradually work in enough of the melted, clarified butter to form a glistening mixture that is moist enough to pack into a ball or mound.
- Knead the sellou for a few minutes to ensure everything is mixed thoroughly before transferring to a plastic container. (The sellou will continue to absorb the butter and dry a little bit as it is stored.).
- Let the mixture to cool and then cover. Sellou keeps well for two months or longer in an airtight plastic container. It can also be frozen for up to six months. Allow newly prepared sellou to sit for a day or two before freezing.

FISH AND EGGPLANT STEW
This recipe comes from West Africa, and is from Classic International Recipes. Because rivers, lakes, and ocean inlets are plentiful here, fish and seafood are used often. It is too "bland" as posted, so I have taken some liberties! Maybe not authentic, but tastier! Revised 06/03/2011.

CHICKEN STEW WITH OKRA
I found this recipe on the Epicurious site. The introduciton states that this is is a typical dish from West Africa that is served with rice to soak up the delicious sauce. It's often served with foo-foo (a side dish made from corn, sweet potato, and plantain or cassava meal).

Steps:
- Arrange chicken in 1 layer on a tray, then sprinkle with salt and let stand at room temperature 30 minutes.
- While chicken stands, pulse tomatoes with their juice in a food processor until finely chopped.
- Stir water into tomato paste in a small bowl until smooth.
- Pat chicken dry. Heat oil in a 10- to 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then brown chicken, without crowding, in 3 or 4 batches, turning over occasionally, until golden, about 6 minutes per batch. Transfer with tongs as browned to a 6- to 7-quart heavy pot. Pour off all but 2 tablespoons fat from skillet, then add onion and cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until edges are golden, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add onion, chopped tomatoes, tomato paste mixture, garlic paste, and cayenne to chicken in pot.
- Whisk together peanut butter and 1 cup broth in a bowl until smooth, then add to chicken along with remaining 3/4 cup broth, stirring to combine well (chicken will not be completely covered with liquid). Bring to a boil, uncovered, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally (to prevent sticking), until chicken is very tender, 25 to 30 minutes.
- Peel sweet potato and cut into 1-inch chunks. Stir into stew along with okra, then simmer, covered, until potato is tender but not falling apart, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Cooks' note: Chicken stew, without sweet potato and okra, can be made 1 day ahead and cooled completely, uncovered, then chilled, covered. Reheat stew before proceeding with recipe.

CHILES RELLENOS WITH CHEESE SAUCE
These chilies are filled with wonderful melted cheese and coated in a rich beaten egg mixture. Growing up in a state with no Latino population, I didn't taste these little beauties until I was 12 years old. It was love at first bite. I still love them and they're one of my favorite foods.
