Lamb Tagine

140 min 6 servings Medio
Lamb tagine is a classic North African dish known for its rich, aromatic flavours and tender lamb. This slow-cooked dish combines a variety of spices and ingredients, creating a delicious blend that is both comforting and exotic. Traditionally cooked in a tagine, a conical clay pot that allows steam to circulate, this dish can also be prepared in a heavy-bottomed pot. The slow cooking process ensures that the lamb becomes melt-in-your-mouth tender, while the spices infuse every bite with warm, fragrant flavours.

For the Lamb Tagine

Instrucciones

1

Prepare the lamb

Season the lamb cubes with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Brown the lamb in batches, ensuring each piece is browned on all sides. Remove and set aside.

Consejo del chef: Don't overcrowd the pan; it will prevent proper browning.

2

Cook the onions

Add another tablespoon of olive oil to the pot. Reduce the heat to medium and add the sliced onions. Cook until soft and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.

Consejo del chef: Stir occasionally to prevent the onions from burning.

3

Add garlic and spices

Stir in the minced garlic and spices (cumin, cinnamon, ginger, turmeric). Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Consejo del chef: Adding spices at this stage helps release their flavours.

4

Combine ingredients

Return the lamb to the pot. Add the soaked saffron with its water, canned tomatoes, chicken broth, and dried apricots. Stir to combine.

Consejo del chef: Ensure all ingredients are well mixed for even cooking.

5

Simmer the tagine

Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the lamb is tender.

Consejo del chef: Check occasionally and add more broth if the sauce becomes too thick.

6

Finish and serve

Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Stir in toasted almonds. Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.

Consejo del chef: Cilantro or parsley make excellent garnishes.
