This Moroccan lamb stew is not only easy to make but is a great dish to make for yummy leftovers for lunch.

It is a rich-tasting dish but has plenty of flavours and texture throughout. With the dried apricots helping to give it a lovely sweetness.

How to make Moroccan lamb stew

• Sauté the diced lamb in a frying pan with a little bit of oil to seal the meat.

Serving ideas

What sides to serve with a stew can be personal and there are so many options! We like to serve with savoy cabbage, brown rice, or for a low carb option broccoli or cauliflower rice.

When taken as leftovers for lunch we often have it on its own without any sides.

Alternative cooking ideas

If you don’t have a slow cooker, you can find them at affordable prices, and you can make so many meals with them. A slower cooker is one kitchen essential we use regularly, and if you always find it hard to make the time to cook healthy homemade meals, a slow cooker can really help.
