MOROCCAN LAMB WITH COUSCOUS
This is a really simple recipe to make it can be on the table in 30 Min's not including the marinating time. The marinade is easy to make and something you can do the night before or before work and it is ready to go when you walk through the door. I love couscous and I think it pairs very well with this dish. I use quick cooking couscous which comes in sachets of 100g each to serve 1-2 people depending on whether making as is or serving as an accompaniment like I did. The brand I buy only takes 2 Min's to cook and you place the sachet in boiling water, so when you get to the part where you add stock and hot mango chutney to the water, please note that this is just to flavour couscous and not to be mixed with it.

MOROCCAN BRAISED LAMB WITH COUSCOUS
For Claude Lelouch and other French Jews from North Africa, couscous (a term that refers both to the stew and to the grain) is comfort food. When Suzon Meymy started cooking as a young bride living in Paris, her native Morocco seemed terribly far away, so she wrote to her mother, asking for recipes. "My mother was so unhappy that I was in France, so she sent me cooked chicken and flans. What she didn't know was that they didn't travel well, so we couldn't eat them when they arrived." When Suzon cooks lamb couscous today, in her small apartment in a Paris suburb, she uses her mother's techniques. "My mother, who was the couscous-maker of Mogador, spent all her time in the kitchen," she told me. "I watched her and my sisters cook for every festival in our town. They were exhausted from so much cooking. I saw them falling apart with fatigue." Suzon, a very good cook, takes the time to make this lamb stew only when her whole family is present. What I like about this amazing recipe for couscous is that the vegetables are not overcooked. Serve the lamb with couscous (see page 270) and a delicious Moroccan squash dish (see page 302)

Steps:
- The day before serving, season the meat heavily with salt and pepper, and sear it in a frying pan with one tablespoon of the oil. Then preheat the oven to 250 degrees. Put the meat in a pot, add a little water, and braise, covered, for about 2 hours, or until tender. Set aside to cool, and then refrigerate overnight.
- Also the day before serving, heat the remaining oil in another pot, and sauté the leek and the onions. When the onions are translucent, add the turnips, carrots, ginger, cinnamon, turmeric, ras el hanout, salt and freshly ground pepper to taste, and garlic. Cover the vegetables and spices with water, and simmer, covered, until the carrots are tender.
- The next day, cut the lamb into 2-inch chunks, and put it in the pot with the vegetables. Add the zucchini. Simmer slowly until the zucchini is just cooked but still bright green. Adjust seasonings, and stir in the harissa sauce. (I also serve more at the table, so that people can adjust the heat to their taste.)
- Stir together the harissa, couscous broth, salt and freshly ground pepper to taste, cinnamon, and Spanish pepper in a small bowl. Serve with the couscous.
LAMB STEW WITH COUSCOUS
This is one of my favorite dishes that my husband makes. Please don't omit the raisins ... they add a soft sweetness that is really terrific. Instead of ladling the lamb over the couscous in the end, my husband will sometimes combine it all in a baking dish and cook for 10 minutes or so in a 350 oven. Either way, this is one of my favorite Sunday dinners. I hope you try this ... and enjoy!

Steps:
- Mix ground cumin, coriander, paprika and fennel seeds in a bowl. Put the olive oil in a big sauce pan with lid or a casserole in medium heat. When the oil is hot, put in the mixed spices. Fry them for 1-2 minutes until you can smell the lovely fragrance of the spices. Add ginger and chili, fry for a further 1 minute.
- Add lamb shanks in the pan, make sure the shanks are coated with the spices while browning the meat. After the lamb shanks are nice and brown, add the chopped tomatoes, and cook for 2-3 minutes.
- Add chicken stock into the pan, make sure the lamb shanks are largely covered, and bring it to boil. Add cinnamon stick, salt and honey to the pot, cover the pan with the lid and reduce the heat to let it simmer for 30 minutes.
- After 30 minutes, adjust the seasoning to your preference. Let the lamb continue to cook for another 2 hours, and turn the lamb shanks over every 30 minutes, and add additional water if the stocks becomes a bit dry.
- After 2 hours and 30 minutes, add the chopped apricots, figs and almond flakes to the lamb, and continue to cook for another 30 minutes. The meat should be almost falling off the bones by now.
- Meanwhile, put couscous in a large bowl, and cover with the sauce from the lamb. The liquid should be enough to cover the couscous with a finger width of extra water on the top. Cover the bowl with the lid from the pot for about 5 minutes. This would allow the couscous to soak up all the flavours. Uncover the bowl, and fluff the couscous up with a fork. Sprinkle some of the chopped coriander and mix.
- Divide the couscous up into 2 bowls, and dish out the lam shank on top of the couscous. Don't forget to put some of that lovely sauce on top of the dish. And finally, sprinkle some of the chopped coriander on top.

MOROCCAN CHICKPEA AND VEGETABLE STEW WITH COUSCOUS
This is delicious stew. Very flavorful from the spices, but not too spicy, just right. There is no meat in it, and you most likely won't miss it, as the chickpeas are very "meaty" themselves. But I don't see why you couldn't add some meat if you really wanted to. It also goes from prep to table in about 30 minutes, great for weeknight dinners. From Cooking Light.

MOROCCAN LAMB STEW
I saw a version of this stew prepared on the UK tv show "Come Dine with Me," as made by Nathalie, the week's winner. The online version of the recipe was a bit different from how she prepared it on tv, so I followed what I saw her do, rather than what was online, and the results were amazing. No wonder the guests voted for her to win and went back for second helpings! The cut of lamb she used was neck fillet, which comes out very tender in slow cooking... if you can't get that cut, use shoulder meat, but not leg or it will get stringy. She used packets of ASDA brand Reason to Season Moroccan Lamb, I used real Ras al Hanout, which I added very liberally. I gave a measurement as a guess, but I didn't measure the seasoning accurately. My Ras al Hanout did not contain any salt, so I did need to add some salt as well, I think the packets she used came pre-salted however. I used salt only after browning the meat, and then again after the stew was ready.

Steps:
- Brown the meat chunks in a large skilllet with a small amount of olive oil, adding some minced garlic.
- Pour the pan contents into a large metal lasagna pan, then place the slivered onions on top, and add the Moroccan seasoning packet (or maybe 2) or a hearty amount of Ras al Hanout (I also added a bit of salt here), the courgettes, mushrooms,the drained chickpeas, pour tomatoes & their juice on top, then squirt ribbons of tomato paste across the top.
- Give it all a good stir, then cover tightly with foil or pan lid.
- Bake in a preheated 375 F oven (gas mark 5 , 190 C, 170 C Fan) for 2 hours, no peeking.
- After 2 hours, remove the lid, stir and taste for seasonings, adding more salt and additional seasoning until it is to your liking.
- On the show, this was served this with "Sammy's Couscous - Sundried Tomato and Mediterranean Herb", ignoring the package instructions and dumping the whole box into a bowl, covering with 1 pint of boiling water, stirring, let sit a few minutes, stirring again, then sauteeing in some butter in a skillet before serving.

MOROCCAN LAMB STEW WITH APRICOTS
The lamb gets mellow from cooking until tender, and the warm spices take away any overly "lamby" flavor. The apricots, cilantro, and pine nuts are a wonderful combination. This stew took very little time or effort--very nice for a complex-flavored dish like this. This would be great with crusty bread, served over couscous, or with chickpeas added in for a heartier meal.

Steps:
- Combine lamb, coriander, cumin, paprika, cayenne, cardamom, turmeric, and salt in a large bowl; toss together until lamb is evenly coated.
- Heat oil in a large Dutch oven or tagine over medium heat. Add onions; cook, stirring occasionally until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, ginger, and cinnamon; cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add seasoned lamb; cook, stirring frequently until light brown, being careful not to caramelize, about 2 minutes. Add chicken stock and bring to a gentle boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, until the lamb is just tender, about 1 hour and 15 minutes.
- Stir in apricots, orange peels, and honey; continue to simmer over low heat, uncovered, until the liquid has thickened slightly and lamb is fork-tender, about 30 minutes. Remove from the heat, discard cinnamon sticks and orange peels.
- Divide evenly among 4 bowls. Garnish each bowl with a tablespoon each of cilantro and pine nuts.

Steps:
- Dredge the lamb pieces in flour. Heat the Dutch oven over medium flame with one tablespoon of olive oil and and tablespoon of butter. Open all cans; drain chickpeas and rinse them. Retain liquid from tomatoes. (Following step must be done in two batches in most ovens.) Fry cumin and cinnamon gently for a moment; add lamb pieces and brown slowly, turning until all pieces are evenly browned. Add garlic and red pepper; toss gently to distribute. Remove lamb and place on plate. Deglaze pot with cans of tomato; be sure to scrape bottom of pot thoroughly with wooden or nylon spoon. Add lamb and enough stock to cover lamb to the depth of about half an inch. (If you like it spicier or denser, add a dried chili pepper or lamb bones, and remove these before serving.) Cover tightly and place in 350 F degree oven for about 40 minutes. Check from time to time to see if lamb is fork-tender and falling apart and be sure liquid level remains above meat. Remove from oven at that point. (Everything up to hear can be made up to several days beforehand. Just reheat day-of and continue.) Add chickpeas and olives to oven mixture (I use a can of each, but add to your taste). Prepare couscous; serve stew over couscous. Garnish with harissa, more cumin/cinnamon, or slices of preserved lemon.
