  I left out the mint and I also cooked it in a low oven for approx 2 hours. The lamb just melted in the mouth and surprisingly my children loved it and especially the moroccan flavours. One to repeat especially easy.

  Absolutely delicious, now made this countless times and a firm favourite with everyone. I findd it even more succulent (if that's possible) in a slow cooker.

  This has become one of my firm favourites. Love the combination of flavours. I do it long and slow in the simmering oven of the Aga and it's wonderful.

  I found this very easy mo make, smell was mouth watering but it tasted a bit too sweet. Lamb was just delicious. Will make it again, but will put in less apricots and leave the honey out as in my opinion it doesn't need it. Great with cous cous.

  Yet another winner..any recipe that becomes a family favorite is Number One in my book. All the better I can put it all together the day before!! If the kids love it and the hubby loves it then I'm happy...so long as I love the meal too, of course. Yes,loved it!!

  This was lovely with cous cous. I had to substitute the fresh mint with dried because the supermarket had run out, but it was still very tasty. I will definately be making this again.

  I used stewing steak and left it to stew for a bit longer. It was absolutely lovely, I'll be making it again this weekend. Definitely recommended.

  fantastic. like most stews or casserole type dishes it tasted twice as nice the day after when i took it to work. i've made it a couple times now and chopped the apricot finer each time.. really adds a suprising sweetness.
