Hi dear Alia,
1:36 – 1:40 you made me smile ^_^ maybe you never used it in your cooking
but I’m 100% sure that you already know about it! It’s very popular and
some Moroccan people do use it while others don’t. The mace (a spice) is
simply that waxy red covering found within the nutmeg – it surrounds the
nutmeg seed, it’s called ‘gooza’(nutmeg) in Morocco, I told you that you
know already about it 🙂
People who do use nutmeg-mace in their cooking have to be very careful
because it can cause serious side effects if a large amount is used
especially if it’s raw – it has psychoactive effects! They are some people
who smoke it, use it like a drug/intoxicant that’s why in some countries
it’s banned!
It’s been years that I know about it, and every time I come across
something that I don’t know I research about it 🙂 that happened the day
when a friend share a cooking recipe of a Pakistani dish (Indian and
Pakistani cuisine is the same) so when I’ve seen that ‘alien’ ingredient
^_^ not known to me at that time I’ve asked and I did some research because
when it comes to food we should really know what we consume, there are
people who have allergies, sensitive to particular ingredient or simply not
according to their taste etc…
Personally I don’t use nutmeg or mace, I’ve taste it once in a dish (low
amount) but making the same one without it I didn’t taste any difference
that’s why I always skip it.
Thank you so much/’Bahut Shukriya/dhanyavad (in hindi/urdu) for the video
^_^ I can smell the ingredients from here hmm!!!! Lol everytime I cook
‘murgh makhani’ (Chef Sanjay Thumma recipe – Vah Reh Vah – check his
channel he is awesome!!) the smell makes me travel all over india 😀
I have to try this one! What’s the Indian name of this dish please? By the
way I loved the pan ^_^ so cute!
7:16 I can’t believe it!!!!!!! You said ‘it’s not/no!’ in KOREAN
‘aniyeyo/aniyo’ 😀 I was like what what what?!! Maybe right now you are in
India but your mind is still on Korean mode ^_^ AWESOME!!
Take care and thank you again ^_^
Beautiful video.
Are you in India now?
as an Indian, am delighted that you have added Indian food to your coterie,
and not to forget that am a huge fan of moroccan and arab food as well. God

Great video Alia, I have been a subscriber of your awesome channel since
early 2012 and it is nice to see you expand your horizons into
international cooking not to mention turn into a total Youtube celebrity

not to mention your very good presentation and people skills are absolutely
amazing. I look forward to the day when you have your own cooking show on
network TV. Best wishes.

Wow Alia! This looks so great. I’m a huge fan of Indian food so I’m really
looking forward to all of these videos. I wish I had a better tolerance for
spicy food so I could enjoy some of India’s spicier dishes. I’ll keep
upping my tolerance with red kimchi. ;)
Hi Alia! I think you forgot to mention in the written recipe to add Ginger
Garlic paste to the chicken along with the masala mixture and yogurt +water
its a lot of spices , hard to find , can i remplace all that spices by
the masala powder that we found on some indian store ? btw great recipe and
