- Once onions are golden, add turmeric, cayenne, harissa paste, salt and pepper. Give everything a good stir. Then add tomato paste and continue cooking for 1-2 minutes - At this point, the oil should turn red. That's the look we're going for here.
- Now stir in your lamb and ensure all of the spice mixture coats the meat. Lower the heat to low. You're looking for a soft simmer⏤the fat from the lamb will create liquid; don't add water yet. Just cover and forget about it for 5-7 minutes.
- After the meat has released its juices remove the lid and add 1 1/2 cups and bring to a rapid boil. Once the rapid boil has been achieved, reduce heat to a gentle simmer for 10 minutes.
