Mexican Clay

Tagene cooking (recipes)?
We have bought a clay ovenproof Tagene which we were told is a pot for cooking mexican food in.
Has anybody ever used a Tagene, and if so how did you use it? on the hob or in the oven, and what is a good recipe for the Tagene, We are meat eaters and love spice so if its hot its good.
A meat recipe would be good , thankyou. PS Any idea why it is shaped the way it is?
“Tagene” is a place in Switzerland. So, I think you mean a “Tagine” or “Tajine”. Here is one recipe. I prefer to use whole cumin and corriander which I roast quickly in butter in a pan. Then I grind it.
Chicken With Lemon and Olives
two to four cloves of garlic, minced
olive oil (or any oil) for pan-frying chicken and mixing marinade
one or two chickens, cut into serving sized pieces; or similar amount of chicken breasts
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon fresh chopped ginger
pinch of saffron
1 teaspoon ground or roasted cumin seeds
1 teaspoon turmeric (optional)
1 stick of cinnamon or a few pinches of ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground or roasted coriander seeds
two onions, finely chopped
two cups chicken broth or stock (or water)
one cup green olives
two preserved lemons, cut into slices
salt to taste
2 whole red chilis – Optional if you like it spicy.
Mix the garlic, some black pepper, and a spoonful of oil. Rub the chicken with the mixture and set aside for a few hours or in the fridge overnight.
Heat the oil in a tagine. Fry the chicken until all sides begin to brown. Add spices. Add onions. Stir-fry over high heat for a few minutes.
Add chicken broth, stock, or water. Bring to broil. Reduce heat. Cover, but leave a crack for steam to escape. Simmer over low heat for thirty minutes or more.
Add olives and preserved lemons. Add salt and adjust seasoning. Continue to simmer. Remove chicken and set aside. If necessary, bring sauce to boil, stirring continuously, until thickened.
Serve chicken, covered with sauce, over couscous.
Couscous is very easy to cook – the directions are on the package. I like to add 4 tablespoons of chopped cilantro, juice of 1/2 lemon, salt, cracked pepper, and chicken broth instead of water. Tagine also tastes great served over plain couscous -just make sure the sauce is not so thick that the couscous can’t absorb some of it.
Good Luck!
