Bored with Butties phase 26a
Ok, here’s a second attempt at this but using lamb instead of sparrows. See what you think of this.
Lamb, apricots, tomatoes, chickpeas, onion and various herbs & spices
Note the apricots this time are well within the sell-by date and still orange
Much less charcoal this time, a lot less fierce but still plenty hot
About 600g diced lamb....
....an onion, couple of garlic cloves, a teaspoon each of ground ginger, cumin, cinnamon, turmeric and chilli flakes, plus a handful of chopped parsley & coriander....
....mix it up while it’s on the heat....
....add a tin of chickpeas, tin of chopped tomatoes, and 250g dried apricots....
....mix it all in....
....and put the lid on. Keep about half a litre of stock available to add from time to time as it dries out....
....replenish the charcoal as necessary....
....2 hours later....
....add some flaked almonds and sesame seeds....
....and serve with cous cous, parsley & coriander.
Result – absolutely delicious. Conwy beware next weekend

Wonderful Muz. I am with Ady though, not sure about the cous cous. The lamb looks wonderful though. Might practice in the yard to see if I can cook that outside. Thanks Muz

Re: Bored with Butties phase 26a
For all you cous-cous haters out there, just use rice. Or pittas or other unspecified flat bread. The mix of spices make it a wonderful taste and because it's cooked for so long the meat is amazingly tender when you consider it has walked all the way from NZ
Ok, next proper Bongo-camp and we'll do it
