Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 1/2 lb Lamb stew meat
1/3 c Olive oil
3/4 lb Onions; diced large
4 ts Chopped garlic
2 ts Turmeric
1/4 ts Nutmeg
1/4 ts Ground cardamom
1 ts Crushed red pepper
1/2 ts Cinnamon
32 oz Can tomatoes - chopped
1.5 c Beef stock
1/3 lb Fresh spinach; wash & drained
1/2 c Yogurt
1 tb Grated lemon peel
Salt; to taste
1/4 c Pine nuts* *Roasted at 350 F. for about 3 minutes.

Steps:

  • Sear lamb in the olive oil in a cast-iron skillet or Dutch oven. Add the onions; saute them for 2 minutes; then add the garlic and saute it for 1 minute. Put in the turmeric, nutmeg, cardamom, crushed red pepper and cinnamon and saute the mixture for 1 to 2 minutes more, being careful not to burn the onions or garlic. Add the tomatoes and veal stock and stir. Cover the dish and bake at 350 F. for about 1 hour, until the meat is tender and begins to break up.

Sprinkle with roasted pine nuts. (You can also add some potatoes to the dish as well.)

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my dish didn't turn out as flavorful as I expected. I think I might have used the wrong kind of lamb.

This dish was easy to make and turned out great! I used ground lamb instead of lamb chops, and it was still delicious.

I love the combination of flavors in this dish. The lamb is savory and rich, while the spinach is light and refreshing. The yogurt sauce adds a nice tang.
