Jardaloo Sali Boti (Curried Lamb With Apricots And Almonds)


1. In a 6-quart slow cooker, stir together the lamb, vinegar, brown sugar, coriander, cumin, cinnamon, pepper, fennel seeds, cardamom, saffron, cloves and salt until the meat is thoroughly coated in the spices.

2. In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onions, ginger, and garlic. Cook, stirring often, until the onions are translucent (3 minutes).

3. Scrape the contents of the skillet into the slow cooker. Stir in the apricots, almonds, vegetable broth and tomato sauce.

4. Cover and cook on low until the meat is very tender (6-8 hours). If you left the bones with the meat, remove the meat with tongs and separate the meat from the bones, discarding the bones.

5. Degrease the sauce, if necessary, by laying a paper towel on the surface to soak up the fat, then remove and discard it. Repeat with another paper towel, if needed.

6. Return the deboned meat to the sauce and season to taste with salt. Serve over shoestring potatoes for a traditional Parsi meal. You can also serve it over cooked brown rice, over couscous or steamed, stemmed spinach.
