LAMB STEW WITH SPRING VEGETABLES
When Jeffrey and I lived in Washington, D.C., I entertained at home a lot. Julia Child's wonderful lamb stew with spring vegetables was in my repertoire because I could make it in advance. This is my simplified version of that wonderful recipe.

MOROCCAN LAMB STEW WITH APRICOTS
The lamb gets mellow from cooking until tender, and the warm spices take away any overly "lamby" flavor. The apricots, cilantro, and pine nuts are a wonderful combination. This stew took very little time or effort--very nice for a complex-flavored dish like this. This would be great with crusty bread, served over couscous, or with chickpeas added in for a heartier meal.

Steps:
- Combine lamb, coriander, cumin, paprika, cayenne, cardamom, turmeric, and salt in a large bowl; toss together until lamb is evenly coated.

Stir in garlic, ginger, and cinnamon; cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
