    Lamb, Shallot and Date Tajine, Lovely, warm, spicy Mediterannean notes Good winter fare This recipe is from Paul Merrett (Fresh Food) , Very tasty and the sauce was terrific! I think the recipe is missing some proportions and directions, though The amount of olive oil and spices used to marinate the meat is not nearly enough for the quantity of meat specified In fact, I wouldn’t marinate the meat at all, I can’t see that it added anything to the finished product used more spices than indicated, including salt, pepper and lamb seasoning For the amount of liquid added, more flour is needed I added more, and still my final product was more soup-like Also, add the flour to the sauteed shallots (to make a roux), not directly to the liquid, or you will have lumps of flour 18 shallots is way too many, used half that many I don’t know how large shallots are in general, but mine were very large, almost the size of small onions I think this recipe would be good with added vegetables to it, like squash or something like that The recipe also didn’t state this, but used olive oil to brown the lamb and also to saute the shallots This is a very good recipe and I hope these tips are useful Made for the Pink Panthers on the Prowl for ZWT9
