Simple Morrocan style Berber lamb Tagine

After visiting Morroco many times over the years, I have created my take on the traditonal berber tagine. Its traditionally cooked over charcoal, but this recipie works well in the oven. You cant go wrong with this recipie and it will produce consistent results every time with lovely, juciy slow cooked lamb. Its a firm family favourite of ours. I tend to cook it in a traditional morrocan clay tagine but it works well in a slow cooker, or a lidded casserole dish too. You can also replace the lamb for beef and the vegetables for whatever you have in your kitchen.
