The 5 Best Moroccan Dishes Made at Nomad Surf Camp
At Nomad Surf Camp, food is just as important as waves. After a long surf session in Tamraght, nothing feels better than sitting together at the table and enjoying traditional Moroccan dishes prepared with love. Our kitchen blends authentic flavors with a cozy, family-style experience that guests never forget.
Here are the top 5 Moroccan dishes we proudly serve at the camp:
🥇 1. Djaj B’Deghmira (Chicken with Onion & Eggs)
Many people would say couscous deserves first place in Moroccan cuisine, and we respect that. But at Nomad Surf Camp, our chicken with deghmira wins every time. Slow-cooked chicken, caramelized onions, saffron, spices, and that magical touch of eggs folded in—it’s comfort food at its finest. Once you taste it, you’ll understand why we call it our number one dish.
🥈 2. Couscous Fridays
In Morocco, couscous is more than food—it’s tradition. Every Friday, we gather around steaming platters of fluffy semolina topped with seasonal vegetables, chickpeas, and tender meat. For our vegetarian friends, we prepare a special couscous with seven vegetables that’s just as satisfying. It’s not only a meal, it’s a celebration.
🥉 3. Chicken Barbecue
 
Simple, smoky, and packed with flavor—our chicken barbecue is the perfect post-surf dinner. Marinated in Moroccan spices, grilled over hot coals, and served with fresh salads and bread, it’s always a crowd favorite. Guests often say it feels like a beach party on a plate.
4. Chicken Tagine with Caramelized Onions & Raisins
This dish is the definition of Moroccan comfort food. Tender chicken slow-cooked in a clay pot, topped with sweet caramelized onions and plump raisins—it’s both savory and sweet, a flavor combination Morocco is famous for. It’s a dish that always surprises our guests.
5. Vegetarian Tagine
For our vegetarian and vegan guests, we take special care in making a hearty vegetable tagine. Seasonal produce, chickpeas, olives, and Moroccan spices simmer slowly until they reach perfection. Served with fresh bread baked the same day, it’s proof that Moroccan cuisine can be both healthy and indulgent.

At Nomad Surf Camp, food is part of the experience. Whether it’s the legendary Djaj B’Deghmira or a comforting plate of couscous, every dish we serve is made with passion, tradition, and a pinch of ocean vibes.
