Moroccan Lamb Stew
Lamb as I always say, is more expensive than other choices of meat. However you can use other ingredients to bulk it out & make it go further.This recipe does just that with the addition of chickpeas. With lovely warm spices like cinnamon & cumin this stew is also full of flavour & perfect for a cold day!
