First dish: lamb tagine
Lamb tagine is so easy and yummy. Just throw these things in the slow cooker:
- diced lamb
- vegetable stock
- a couple of cinnamon sticks
- a blob or two of honey
- some cloves, cumin, coriander, turmeric. I also threw in a couple of pieces of galangal, which I haven’t used in a tagine before
- some diced dried apricots
- fresh grated ginger
- a tomato, diced
- some whole cloves of garlic
- some pickled lemons (buy them at Asian or Middle Eastern grocery stores - don’t buy the expensive ones from gourmet shops. They charge about $8 for a tiny jar when you can pick up a huge jar for $3 on Sydney Rd)
Turn on the slow cooker and let it go for a few hours. Serve with couscous. Dee-lish!
