What better than the « Mrouzia » to illustrate the mastering of sweet and salty in Moroccan cuisine.
Bones are highly appreciated to prepare this "Mrouzia". The reason is simple, they give a lots of flavor to this dish. Thus, a small amount of meat is left on the bones. The rest is used in other dishes (ground meat, #skewers# ...).

The "Mrouzia" can be kept for a long time in the refrigerator. Take out some of "Mrouzia", warm it and serve it. rnInstead of eating it the same day when it is prepared, it is advisable to keep it for a while (1 day) so that the different flavors mingle and soak into the meat.
