How To Make Jamie Oliver Slow Cooker Lamb Tagine
- Preparation: In a frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon (15ml) of olive oil over medium heat. Fry about 900g (roughly 2 lbs) of lamb chunks until they’re browned on all sides. Transfer them to the slow cooker. In the same pan, sauté 1 chopped onion for about 5 minutes until it starts to soften.
- Spice Mix: To the sautéed onion, add 3 cut carrots. Sprinkle in 2 teaspoons (about 10ml) of ras-el-hanout and 1 teaspoon (about 5ml) of ground cumin. Stir to combine. Add 1 tablespoon (15ml) of tomato purée, crumble in 1 stock cube, and pour in 250ml (about 1 cup) of water. Stir well and transfer this mixture to the slow cooker with the lamb.
- Additional Ingredients: Add 1 cut sweet potato to the slow cooker. Sprinkle in 30g (about 1 ounce) of dried cherries and drizzle ½ teaspoon (about 2.5ml) of honey over the top. Pour in an additional 500ml (about 2 cups) of water to cover the ingredients.
- Cooking Time: Put the lid on the slow cooker. Set the cooker to low if you have 8 hours or to high if you have 4 hours. Let it cook undisturbed.
- Final Touch: Once the cooking time is up, open the lid and stir in a ½ bunch of chopped coriander (cilantro). Serve the tagine hot, alongside some fluffy couscous.
