Boil for another 40 minutes after adding the apricots.

At the same time as you add the carrots also boil some water for the bulgur. I added turmeric powder to give the dish some extra color. When ready to serve, scope the bulgur onto a plate.

Add the rib stew and serve with the orange slices. The flavors on your tongue will easily take you to the groves with the Argan trees or to the ocean view in Essaoiura on Morocco's long coast line.
