---
Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare & Slow-Cook the Lamb
1. Preheat oven to 150°C (300°F).

2. Mix cumin, coriander, cinnamon, paprika, turmeric, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Rub this all over the lamb along with olive oil, garlic, honey, Worcestershire sauce, and lemon juice.

3. Place the lamb in a baking dish or Dutch oven. Pour in the stock and scatter the dried fruit around the meat.

4. Cover tightly with foil or a lid and roast for 4–5 hours, basting occasionally, until the lamb is fall-apart tender.

5. Remove the lamb, shred it with two forks, and mix it with the juices and dried fruit.


Step 2: Make the Herbed Rice
1. Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear.

2. In a saucepan, bring water or stock to a boil. Add the rice, cinnamon stick, and cardamom. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 12–15 minutes.

3. Remove from heat, let it sit for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork. Stir in butter or olive oil, fresh herbs, and toasted nuts.


Step 3: Assemble & Serve
Serve the pulled lamb over the fragrant herbed rice, spooning over some of the juices and dried fruit.
Garnish with extra nuts, fresh herbs, and a drizzle of lemon juice or pomegranate molasses for a fresh, zesty finish.
