Braised Lamb with Chickpeas
Ingredients
- Onion 2 heads
- Lamb 8 pieces
- Vegetable Oil 1 tablespoon
- Garlic 2 cloves
- Harissa 1 tablespoon
- Cinnamon 1 piece
- Chickpea 20 oz
- Baking Tomatoes 30 oz

Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat and sauté the pieces of lamb until browned. Add the onion and garlic and sauté for 2-3 minutes until the onion is soft.
Step 2
Add the harissa, cinnamon, and spices. Stir and add the tomatoes, bringing to a boil. Cover and simmer until the liquid evaporates, about 50 minutes.
Step 3
Add the chickpeas, olives, and zest to the pot. Sprinkle with spices and simmer for another 20-30 minutes without covering. The meat should be very tender and easily pull away from the bones. Skim off the floating orange oil with a spoon, then sprinkle with mint.
