Directions
Algerian Green Bean and Lamb Tagine, Since trying Chia’s Recipe #89278 we discovered just how yummy North African food is! This recipe is from the The Great Book of Couscous I have adapted it slightly as I do not like the taste of raw/undercooked tomatoes, but I have also included the original directions Simple, tasty and hearty- great served over, surprisingly enough, couscous Enjoy!, I thought it was a bit bland and too watery should have added tomato paste and extra herbes , Very good used canola oil, bone in lamb shoulder but I pre simmered it in water with a white loomi (Iraqi dried lime) After is was tender about 1 hour, skimming the liquid at the beginning as necessary (which used later for the water called for in this and for cooking rice to serve with this dish) used sea salt used a little saffron less than called for but would use the full amount next time Because of that I added a little turmeric but wouldn’t do so next time For the water used the lamb broth I made from simmering the bone in lamb shoulder and loomi used frozen beans with success and would do so again For the tomatoes used canned plum tomatoes and pureed them in the blender in about double the amount as we like lots of sauce I also added 3 tbs tomato paste at this point as well I followed the recipe posters directions in adding the chopped onion at first rather than sliced onion & tomatoes later which I would do again I will make this again
