lamb tagine
North African braise
Lamb tagine is a North African stew of lamb braised with spices, dried fruits, and often preserved lemons or olives, named for the conical clay pot it's traditionally cooked in.
The dish is associated especially with Moroccan cuisine: We ordered the lamb tagine with apricots and almonds.
The slow cooking yields tender, aromatic meat in a thick sauce.
