Directions
Lamb Tagine with Honey, Another lamb tagine, this recipe uses ras el hanout (see my recipe) Prep time does not reflect overnight marinating courtesy of the NY Times , I made this recipe based on the great reviews, and I was a bit disappointed I found the tagine to be both too sweet and too greasy The lamb shoulder itself is a fairly fatty cut – adding 1/2 cup butter is overkill I only added 1/4 cup, but still found the result very heavy Similarly, there needed to be some counterbalance to the honey & cinnamon I added a jalapeno pepper and salt (strangely missing from the recipe), but it still needed something else There are a lot of great tagine recipes on this site – this one wasn’t my favorite , Fabulous recipe Chia, Thank you Put this on the menu at the pub and it was very popular this weekend Need to cook it in a seriously thick bottomed pan or the sweet sauce will stick and burn but the flavour is lovely with a nice kick
