Lamb Kefta Tagine
Lamb Kefta Tagine
Lamb Kefta Tagine is a delicious Moroccan dish that consists of aromatic lamb meatballs cooked in a flavorful tomato-based sauce, topped with a medley of vegetables and herbs. It is traditionally cooked in a tagine, which is a clay cooking pot with a cone-shaped lid. The slow cooking process allows the flavors to meld together, resulting in a tender and aromatic dish. Lamb Kefta Tagine is usually served with couscous or bread.
Ingredients
Method
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground lamb, chopped onion, minced garlic, cumin, coriander, paprika, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together until well combined.
- Shape the lamb mixture into small meatballs, also known as kefta. You can make them about the size of a golf ball.
- Heat olive oil in a tagine or a large skillet over medium heat. Add the lamb kefta and cook until browned on all sides. Remove the kefta from the pan and set aside.
- In the same pan, add the diced tomatoes, bell pepper, zucchini, carrot, and chicken or vegetable broth. Stir everything together and bring to a simmer.
- Return the lamb kefta to the pan and cover with the lid. Let it simmer on low heat for about 30-40 minutes, or until the kefta is cooked through and the flavors have melded together.
- Once cooked, remove from heat and garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley.
- Serve the Lamb Kefta Tagine with couscous or bread for a complete meal. Enjoy!
