Zaalouk is a Moroccan cooked salad of eggplants and tomatoes that’s usually eaten as a dip with Moroccan bread.
Key to zaalouk’s great flavor is the traditional Moroccan seasoning of cumin and paprika with garlic, cilantro, parsley, and olive oil. A little lemon juice can be added to lift the flavor at end of cooking.
This is the same flavor profile that’s found in the classic Moroccan marinade, chermoula. It was Moroccan food writer Nada Kiffa who pointed this out to me and helped me to recognize that chermoula was “hidden” in a number of dishes’ lists of ingredients, including this one.
