Lamb Tagine instructions
Prepare ingedients. I discovered I had no saffron so substituted a star anise. And used a Knorr stock pot instead of a veg cube..
Using a heavy bottomed pan or casserole heat the oil and add the onions and carrots. Cook for 3-4 minutes to soften..
Add the meat to the pan and brown the cubes thoroughly..
Add the spices and chopped garlic and stir to coat the meat. Cook for a few minutes to release the flavours..
Add the honey and apricots and stir..
Now add the stock cube and about 500ml boiling water to cover the meat.
Cover and simmer for an hour. Remove lid and cook gently a further 30 minutes..
At this stage the dish can be cooled or frozen until you want to serve it..
To serve choose two (or more!) of the following: couscous, diced sweet potatoes boiled or roasted butternut squash, diced or roasted boiled white or brown rice, green salad.
Reheat the tagine carefully and scatter chopped parsley and/or roasted pine nuts before taking to the table. This time I served with spinach which was waiting in fridge for a good monent..
