Wine notes

Start your evening off in style with a glass of champagne, the cumin scented crumbles go particularly well with the dry biscuit notes of the champagne.

A light dry chardonnay not too oaky would work well with the starter.

The honeyed tagine really does call for a wine of substance. Big and strong to balance the sweet spiced tagine, an aged rioja would work well as would a zinfandel or an Australian Cabernet.

And for dessert a Moroccan mint tea would be ideal.

Planning ahead

The crumbles can be made in the afternoon and left to cool. The fruit salad can be made in the afternoon and left covered in the fridge.

Setting the scene

The dinner party is designed to delight in all things vegetable, bright colours of the earth in yellows green and reds would work well, bright flowers on the table and a general cheery table.
