Spread the love

Ingredients:
4 pieces leg of lamb
4 carrots, peeled and cut into big chunks
4 yellow zucchini, cut into chunks
1 cup chickpeas, soaked the night before
1 medium onions, diced
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ras el hanout spice mix
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 liter water (approx.) or 1 liter broth
3 tablespoons oil

Directions:
Heat the oil in a large pot, e.g. one for soup. Add the onion and the meat and let it take some colour.
Add enough water or broth to cover the meat, usually about 1 liter. Stir in the spices.
Add the chickpeas right now, or they will never become soft!
Let it simmer on low for about 1 hour.
After 1 hour, add the vegetables, make sure everything is slightly covered with water/broth. Let simmer for another hour.
After these two hours, vegetables should be soft, and you should be able to tear apart the meat with a spoon, as this is how it is eaten!
Check for seasoning and serve with steamed couscous!
