Advantages: Yummy easy - don't have to worry about it

Disadvantages: some people don't like spicy food

I am a big fan of having dinner parties and introducing new tastes and flavours, especially as a lot of my friends are meat and veg people!

One of my favourite recipes that really tantalise the tastes buds is a Moroccan lamb tagine or tajine as its sometimes spelt.
Moroccan food is extremely rich but generally healthy and the spices used bring out the flavour of the meat.

Ingredients

1tsp of all the following spices
Paprika, black pepper, cayenne pepper, ginger, tumeric, crushed cloves and cinnamon

Lamb - 1 shoulder will be sufficient but use which cut you can find that you can afford. (diced)
2 large onions
Tub of passata 500ml
1pt lamb stock
2 tins of good quality tomatoes
3 cloves of garlic crushed
100g dried apricots
100g sultanas
2tbsp of following - rosemary, honey, coriander and parsley

Marinade lamb in spices over night.

Fry onion with garlic in pan for few minutes and then add lamb and fry until sealed.

Throw all other ingredients in slow cooker and add the lamb mix cook on high for first few hours then turn to low until desired.

To add bulk you could even add peas to this recipe.

Serve with rice or crispy fried potatoes

A yummy winter warmer that impresses everybody and is so easy! If you don't have slow cooker put in casserole dish and cook on 150 degrees for around 3 hours.

Summary: Yum Yum YUM!!
