Method

  • Preheat the oven to 160°C.

  • In a large pan heat the oil, and lightly brown the meat in 2 or 3 batches. Place in a casserole dish.

  • Add the onion, garlic and celery to the pan and cook for 3 or 4 minutes until softened. Then add the cumin, coriander, ginger, turmeric, nutmeg, and chilli flakes. Stir for 2 minutes until fragrant. Stir in the tomatoes and 1 cup water. Add tomato mixture to the meat.

  • Cover and place in the oven for 1 hour. Remove and add the pumpkin, dates and almonds, then place back into the oven for a further 30 minutes or until the meat is tender.

  • When your tagine is ready remove from the oven and stir in the silver beet.

  • Serve in bowls with couscous, and garnish with chopped coriander.

  • SMART TIP - Browning the meat helps to seal in the juices before going into the casserole dish.
