Avocado Smoothie

Thick, creamy blended avocado with milk and honey, a beloved Moroccan café staple especially in Marrakech.

Ingredients

• 600g chicken thighs
• 2 cups vermicelli noodles
• a handful of finely chopped red onion
• 1 1/2 tsp ground turmeric
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 1 cup zucchini, sliced

• dried apricots, to taste

Instructions

1. 1

   Combine the couscous and water in a saucepan, blender, or pitcher, stirring well.

2. 2

   Add the ground cumin and preserved lemon, stirring gently so their flavor infuses the mixture.

3. 3

   Heat gently over low heat (or blend, or steep, depending on the drink) until well combined and fragrant, about 0 mins.

4. 4

   Strain through a fine sieve to remove any solids, if needed.

5. 5

   Sweeten to taste with honey, adjusting gradually until the balance feels right.

6. 6

   Chill in the refrigerator, or pour straight over ice, depending on whether it is served cold or hot.
