Slow cooker lamb tagine

What I had:

  • 3.5 lbs lamb shoulder, cut into half inch bite sized pieces
  • 2 medium onions, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic, crushed and minced
  • 1 14.5 oz can of diced tomatoes
  • 2.5 cups beef broth (I used 3 beef bullion cubes)
  • 1 tbsp paprika
  • 1 tbsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp minced ginger
  • 1/4 tsp ground cardamom
What I did:
  • Placed lamb in crock pot (I have a 7 quart one and this recipe filled it to the top)
  • Cooked the garlic in a little bit of love oil till fragrant, add onions till limp, and then add all the dry spices and ginger. Cook for a minute.
  • Sprinkled the mixture over the lamb.
  • Poured the tomatoes and broth over everything.
  • Cooked on low 7 hours.
  • Served over couscous.
Verdict: it was absolutely delicious and will be joining our dinner rotations.
