Steps:
- Combine cumin, coriander, ginger, cinnamon, and pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
- SEE Note below* In a large saucepan, add onion and garlic in about ¼ cup water; cook 8 to 10 minutes or until water has evaporated and they are golden and tender. Stir in spice mixture, tomato paste, canned tomatoes, and harissa, if using, and cook 1 minute, stirring.
- Stir in broth, sweet and red potatoes and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, covered, about 10 minutes. Then add the zucchini, cauliflower, and chickpeas and continue to simmer until all of the vegetables are tender and the sauce has thickened about another 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, bring 2 1/4 cups water and lemon juice to a boil. Remove from heat. Stir in couscous. Cover and let sit until all liquid is absorbed, about 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
- To finish the tagine, stir in apricots and season with sea salt, if desired.
- Place into a tagine, if you have one, or large platter for serving. Each person can dish up some couscous and top with the vegetable tagine sprinkled with cilantro and a few toasted almonds.

ROOT VEGETABLE TAGINE WITH HERBED COUSCOUS
A pot of warm, fragrant root vegetables spooned over bright, lemony couscous is as good as gold on a winter day. Studded with chickpeas, raisins and meaty morsels of stewed tomatoes, this dish balances traditional tagine spices - cinnamon, coriander and turmeric - with a bright boost of ginger and lemon. Given a little time on the stove for the flavors to deepen and the vegetables to turn spoon-tender, this tagine is a worthwhile investment. Double it for a week of leftovers. You don't need a traditional terracotta tagine to pull this dish off. A Dutch oven mimics the same high heat conduction and similarly traps steam to keep the vegetables tender and moist, and bathed in flavor from the broth.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onion and a pinch of salt and cook until beginning to soften, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic, cinnamon, ginger, coriander and turmeric, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the spices are toasted, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add the stock, squash, carrots, tomatoes and their juices, and lemon peel. Stir to release any spice bits from the bottom of the pan. Bring to a simmer over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium, cover and cook until the vegetables are almost tender and break easily with a spoon, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Stir in the chickpeas, raisins and honey and simmer, covered, until the chickpeas are warmed through and the raisins are plump, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Meanwhile, prepare the couscous: Bring the stock to a boil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Combine the couscous, lemon zest and salt in a large bowl; pour the boiling stock on top. Cover with a lid or plastic wrap to steam, about 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork, and stir in the parsley.
- Divide the herbed couscous among the bowls and spoon the warm tagine on top. Sprinkle generously with pomegranate seeds and parsley or cilantro, and serve with lemon wedges on the side, for squeezing over.
LAMB TAGINE WITH CHICKPEAS AND RAISINS, BASMATI RICE AND HARISSA
Steps:
- For the tagine: Mix together the garlic, honey, olive oil, cilantro, saffron, paprika, cumin and tomato paste in a large bowl. Add the lamb and toss to coat. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator overnight. Remove from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Put the meat and the marinade into a tagine or Dutch oven and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add the potatoes, carrots, onions, stock and cinnamon and stir together. Place the tagine lid on or Dutch oven lid and bake for 1 hour. Stir the chickpeas and raisins into the tagine and cook for 30 minutes. Remove the lid or foil and cook an additional 30 minutes to brown the vegetables. Garnish with cilantro springs.
- For the harissa: Combine all ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth.
- For the rice: Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until soft. Ad the cumin seeds, cinnamon stick, cardamom seeds and bay leaves and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the rice and toss to coat with the mixture. Add the water and lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, cover and reduce heat to medium low, cook for 15 minutes, or until rice is tender and water has been absorbed. Remove from the heat and leave covered for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
