Tagine are Moroccan slow-cooked meat, fruit and vegetable dishes which are almost invariably made with lamb, but beef makes a nice alternative. I happened upon this recipe on the Berber Trading Company site while shopping for tagines. I love lamb and Moroccan food and this one looked interesting. This has a really nice flavor and goes well served with a flat bread or rice. Smells heavenly while cooking.

Steps:
- In a large sauce pan gently fry the onion in the olive oil until soft.
- Add lamb, ginger, and coriander to the pan and cook until it changes color.
- Add cumin, black pepper, cinnamon, and water to just cover the meat.
- Salt to taste.
- Cover and simmer gently until the meat is tender, about 1.5-2 hours.
- If there seems to be a bit too much liquid, displace the lid after an hour of cooking.
- Add the pears to the meat together with almonds. Cook for a further 5 minutes or until the pears are soft.
- NOTE:.
- For a different twist on this, you can substitute mixed vegetables of your choice, instead of pear. It would make it more savory than sweet.
