Guest Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 sounds nice, will you let us know how it turns out Lesley (with the revised recipe) please? I'm doing a huge pan of Moroccan lamb just now but this time I've added chick peas, a la Claret, to give it a bit of bite and to bulk it out a bit to make it go further. Clare's right, it makes the house smell yummy but if anyone is trying it, please get yourself some ras el hanout, a small pouch goes a LONG way, this is where I get my spices and they deliver fast and are very reasonably priced. There's also some lovely recipes on the site. http://www.seasonedpioneers.co.uk/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
