Tagine with lamb and tomatoes

Delicious lamb tagine. If you do not have special dishes, then you can cook in a thick-walled saucepan with a lid.

Ingredients

Servings 3
  • about 600 g of lamb (I took the loin)
  • 10 small firm tomatoes (cherry or plum tomatoes work well), cut in half
  • a pinch of saffron
  • 2/3 st. boiling water
  • parsley or cilantro, a small bunch (who loves what). Remove leaves and finely chop
  • small bunch of green onions with white part, cut into pieces about 0.5 cm long
  • 1/2 st. couscous
  • salt
  • 1 st. l. Moroccan seasoning Raz el Hanout (you can make this mixture yourself)
  • pepper

Cooking

Step 1

In a separate skillet over high heat, sear the Raz el Hanoute boneless lamb to brown on all sides and seal.

Step 2

In a deep bowl, pour the couscous with a glass of boiling water and cover with a lid. Set aside insisting. Separately, pour boiling water over the saffron and also set aside.

Step 3

Heat the oil in a tagine and add the onions and tomatoes. Roast a little. Add fried lamb and fill everything with saffron infusion. Close the lid and simmer over low heat for 30 minutes.

Step 4

Arrange the couscous on a wide platter. Put lamb with tomatoes on top, pour over the resulting juice from the tagine and sprinkle with herbs.
