Method

Mix the relish ingredients in a bowl and serve over the tagine with toasted pine nuts.

Trim the fat from the lamb and cut into 5cm chunks.

Heat a large non-stick pan until hot.

Sear half the lamb until browned and deglaze with 100ml of chicken stock.

Scrape the sediment from the pan and reserve the liquid with the meat.

Repeat the searing and deglazing process for the remaining lamb.

Heat olive oil in the pan and fry the onion for 10 minutes until golden.

Add garlic for 2 minutes and then stir in the ground spices for 1 minute.

Add all remaining tagine ingredients and simmer covered for 2 hours until tender.
