  10. Add some olives and place on the lid, leave it on a low heat so it simmers away, it will take at least 1 hour 15 minutes to cook check the veggies are cooked through. (lamb will take 2 hours) My tagine doesn’t have a hole to release the steam so I place a palate knife under the lid so some of the steam releases!.

  11. Once cooked I pop it under the grill to give it some colour but this is totally optional! Serve and enjoy! Once it’s ready sprinkle with chopped herbs. It’s delicious with crusty bread or couscous!.
