Tagine or Tanjia

Tagines and Tanjia's are made in different ways using different pots. I will put recipes and photos of tagines and tanjias i have made and had later. Right now i just wanted to explain the different shaped pots used for each as it can be confusing. Both dishes are slow cooked meals but they are made in very different pots which makes them different from one another as they cook in different ways. Tanjias are also unique to Marrakech. Tagines are made in the dish that most people have seen, this is the hat or conical shaped one in the pictures below. Tanjias are made in pots that look like roman vases with little handles at the top and are generally cooked in the ashes of a fire.
