The best way I can describe Maraqa is a tomato stew to which various spices, veggies, and meats are added. When I was younger, we had some sort of maraqa at least once a week. One of my absolute favorites has always been Ka’ree. I love the spiciness of the curry, the thickness that the potato adds to the tomato sauce, and the tender beef (or chicken) that shreds into the simmered stew.
