The rest of the victim's remains not eaten by the workers was thrown to neighbourhood dogs.
Yet to be brought before a courtroom, the woman is facing a slew of charges for butchering her lover after he told her he would marry his cousin who is also from Morocco, according to Al Ain Public Prosecution.
The case came to light when the victim's brother went looking for his sibling at the couple's home and allegedly found a human tooth in a blender.
The brother, an Ajman resident, reported his findings to police after filing a missing persons report in January.
When the brother confronted the accused that his brother was missing, the woman denied any knowledge of his whereabouts and contended that she threw them out of their shared living quarters after finding out about his wedding plans to another woman.
Al Ain Prosecution sources confirmed on Tuesday to Gulf News that the woman was arrested months after the killing occurred.
Sources in Al Ain Police declined to release further details in the dismemberment noting that the case is ongoing.
DNA tests conducted confirmed the contents of the blender belonged to the deceased.
During questioning, when police presented the woman with evidence, sources told Gulf News that she collapsed and confessed that she murdered her lover for revenge.
The woman pretended to be mentally ill and insisted she has committed the crime in a state of insanity.
The woman was sent to hospital for medical tests to diagnose her mental condition.
During investigation, the woman in her 30's told police she wanted revenge for being dumped after seven years of financially providing for him. The victim was in his 20's.
After cutting up his body, the woman asked her friend who visited her to help her clean the apartment of blood and remains.
The woman is said to have confessed to police that she used her blender to mince her lover's flesh then cook it to serve in the dish, which is similar to biryani.
The case is still with public prosecution.
