This meatball tagine takes flavor-packed meatballs and stews them in a robust tomato-based sauce.

This Moroccan-inspired dish is often prepared with eggs poached in the sauce (see Tip).

Serve with crusty bread to soak up the spicy sauce.

Roll the mixture into 12 meatballs, using 2 generous tablespoons each.

Cover until ready to use.

Heat oil in a tagine or large skillet with a lid over medium heat.

Add the remaining 1/2 cup onion; cook, stirring frequently, until translucent, about 3 minutes.

Add garlic; cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Remove the bay leaves.

Sprinkle with additional parsley, if desired.

Crack each egg into a ramekin before gently pouring into a pocket.

Cover and simmer over low heat until the eggs are cooked to your liking.
