MOROCCAN LAMB STEW WITH PRESERVED LEMONS
This is one of the easiest stews imaginable, because there is no browning of the meat, yet the flavor is very intense. Serve with apricot couscous and a fennel, mint, and radish salad. Preserved lemons must be made several weeks in advance, but they are simple to prepare and add exquisite flavor.

Steps:
- Trim excess fat and gristle from meat and cut lamb into 1-inch cubes. Place meat in a large bowl. In a small bowl, mix the cumin, ginger, cinnamon, and saffron; sprinkle over the meat and set aside.
- On a cutting board, mince together the orange zest, cilantro leaves, garlic, and salt until you have a paste. Add to the meat along with the orange juice and stir well to coat. Cover the bowl and let stand at room temperature for 2 hours, or up to overnight in the refrigerator.
- Transfer the mixture to a heavy pot, add the onions, tomatoes, and 1 cup water. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat, and simmer (or bake in a preheated 350 degree oven) until the meat is very tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Add olives and, if using, preserved lemon to the pot. Cook about 10 minutes more, then serve.
- Wash a 1-pint glass-canning jar and its lid with hot soapy water; rinse and dry thoroughly.
- Cut 6 of the lemons, 1 at a time, into quarters through 1 end without cutting all the way through the other end. You want the lemon to open out like a flower, but not to separate. Place the lemon on a large piece of parchment or waxed paper, spread quarters open and sprinkle flesh with a heaping tablespoon of kosher salt; put the lemon into the jar. Continue with remaining lemons, sprinkling salt on each. Pack the lemons in the jar tightly, filling it to the top (you may need more or less than 6 lemons, depending on their size). When you reach the top, lift the parchment and pour the excess salt from it into the jar of lemons.
- Slide the bay leaves down opposite sides of the jar. Juice the remaining lemons 1 by 1, adding juice to the jar, until it reaches the top. Seal jar, shake well, and let stand at room temperature, shaking well every 12 hours, for 1 week. After 1 week, transfer jar to the refrigerator, continuing to shake every day. Lemons are preserved after 3 weeks and keep up to several months in the refrigerator.
- To use lemons, pull out as needed and scrape away pulp. Dice peel and use as a condiment.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef: A tender cut of beef, such as chuck roast or short ribs, is best for this stew. These cuts will become fall-apart tender after long, slow cooking.
- Brown the beef before stewing: Browning the beef in a hot skillet before adding it to the stew pot helps to develop its flavor and create a rich, brown sauce.
- Use a variety of spices: Moroccan cuisine is known for its use of aromatic spices. This recipe includes a blend of cumin, coriander, paprika, ginger, and turmeric. Feel free to adjust the amount of each spice to suit your taste.
- Add citrus fruits: The addition of oranges and lemons gives this stew a bright and tangy flavor. Be sure to use fresh citrus fruits for the best flavor.
- Cook the stew low and slow: The key to a flavorful and tender beef stew is to cook it low and slow. Simmer the stew for at least 2 hours, or until the beef is fall-apart tender.
- Serve with your favorite sides: This stew can be served with a variety of sides, such as couscous, rice, or roasted vegetables. It also makes a great filling for tacos or burritos.
Conclusion:
This Moroccan beef stew with orange and lemon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of tender beef, flavorful spices, and bright citrus fruits makes this stew a surefire hit with the whole family. So next time you're looking for a hearty and flavorful meal, give this recipe a try.
