Lamb and Pear Tagine
DESCRIPTION
INGREDIENTS
- 2 lbs lamb meat (leg or shoulder, cubed)
- 2 large onions (peeled and sliced)
- 4 pears (peeled, cored and wedged)
- ½ cup white raisins
- ½ cup slivered almonds
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup water
INSTRUCTIONS
- In a large saucepan gently fry the onions in the olive oil until they are soft. Add the lamb and cook it until it is tender for about 20 minutes.
- Move the contents of the saucepan to a tagine and add the spices. Add one cup water to the lamb and sprinkle with salt.
- Cook gently for about 1 ½ to 2 hours at 300 degrees F. If after 1 hour of cooking there appears to be too much liquid, remove a bit of the liquid.
- When the meat is done, add the pears together with the raisins and the almonds and cook for an additional 5 minutes or until the pears are soft.
- Serve this delicious tagine with rice.
Notes
Note: If you don't own a tagine, you can always use a slow cooker, Dutch oven or pot.
