Ingredients

Instructions

Place all the spices in a bowl and mix together
Remove half the spices and reserve on the side
Add to the bowl the roughly diced lamb and toss well
Leave the lamb to marinate for 2-4 hours
Whilst the lamb is marinating peel the onions, garlic and carrots
Once peeled and cleaned remove and root or stem and roughly chop to that same size as the lamb pieces
Weigh out the sultanas and apricots and keep on the side till needed
Once the lamb has marinated long enough pour the olive oil in a thick bottomed pan
Place the pan over a high heat
Once the oil is just beginning to smoke add the lamb dice to the pan
Cook the lamb till the pieces are beginning to take color
At this point remove the lamb from the pan with a spoon leaving behind any cooking oil
Now add to the pan the onions and garlic
Cook until they too begin to take a little color
As they begin to color add to the pan the carrots
Cook for 5 minutes turning occasionally
Now add the remaining spices to the pan and stir through
Cook out for 2 minutes before adding the lamb and its juices back to the pan
(whilst the lamb is waiting to be added back it will let off juices, keep these juices and add back with the lamb as they have lots of flavor)
Lastly add to the pan the chopped tomatoes, sliced apricots and sultanas
Bring the pan to the simmer and cover with a lid
Turn down to lowest setting and simmer for 2-3 hours
When the lamb is tender to the bite remove from the heat
Season to taste with salt and pepper
Leave to cool naturally
Refrigerate till needed
Reheat slowly over a low gas when needed
