In Morocco we love our chermoula. We use it in most of the tagines whether we cook meat or fish, and of course it goes divinely with vegetables too. I used honey with the cauliflower to give it a sweet kick that goes very well with its hearty taste. You can replace the honey with maple syrup if you are Vegan.
