Method

  • step 1

    Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Heat the oil in a flameproof casserole dish, add the onion and cook for 5 mins until softened. Add the garlic and spices and cook for a couple mins more, stirring to prevent them catching and burning.

  • step 2

    Add the lamb, squash and apricots to the casserole, pour over the tomatoes and stock, season well and bring to the boil. Put the lid on and transfer to the oven. After 1 hr, stir the tagine and return to the oven, uncovered, for a further 30 mins.

  • step 3

    Check the seasoning. Sprinkle over the zest and coriander, and serve in warm bowls with couscous and yogurt.

Hi, thanks for your question. Yes absolutely, this would work well in the slow cooker. We cook our 'Slow cooker lamb tagine' (bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/slow-cooker-lamb-tagine) for 8 hours on low or on high for 4 hours and would expect this recipe to take about the same time. We hope this helps. Best…
