Serves:
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds of boneless lamb shoulder, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 1 onion, chopped
- 3 cloves of garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons of ground cumin
- 2 teaspoons of ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon of ground ginger

- 2 cups of diced tomatoes
- 1 cup of vegetable broth
- 1/4 cup of chopped fresh cilantro
- 1/4 cup of chopped fresh parsley

Instructions
-
In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the lamb pieces and brown them on all sides. Remove from the pot and set aside.
-
In the same pot, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.
-
Add the ground cumin, coriander, ginger, cinnamon, and cayenne pepper to the pot. Cook for another 2 minutes to toast the spices.
-
Return the browned lamb to the pot and stir to coat it with the spices.
-
Add the diced tomatoes and vegetable broth to the pot. Bring to a simmer.
-
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for about 2 hours, or until the lamb is tender and the flavors have developed.
-
Remove from heat and stir in the chopped fresh cilantro and parsley. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
-
Let the stew cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container. Refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
-
To serve, reheat the stew in a pot over medium heat until heated through. Serve hot with couscous or bread.
