Tangia is a meat stew typical of Moroccan Arabic cuisine. Sometimes called "student stew" in modern times, it contains various pieces of meat (usually lamb, especially the leg), and is flavored with turmeric (gives it a yellow color) and cumin. Some recipes include the ras al hanut mixture among its ingredients.

All this is done in the oven, placed in a clay pot with a characteristic shape that also receives the name of tangia (possibly this is the origin of the name, in the same way that the tajín defines the container and the content, as is the case with the paella).

The container is introduced into an underground oven, among the ashes, where it is made slowly. It is customary for the container to be filled at home and then taken to a public oven, originally the hammam ovens, and removed several hours later.

The container is covered with thick paper on which the name of the owner is marked.
