What it is
A rich and aromatic lamb tagine, slow-cooked until incredibly tender. This keto version focuses on the deep flavors of generous caramelized onions, saffron, ginger, and other Moroccan spices, specifically omitting the traditional high-sugar dried fruits like prunes and apricots.
Key ingredients
Lamb shoulder/shank, olive oil, copious amounts of onions, garlic, ginger, saffron, turmeric, cumin, cinnamon (optional), fresh cilantro, water/broth.
If you order it anyway
Crucially, ensure 'no prunes, no apricots, no potatoes, no carrots, no chickpeas'. Confirm no sugar is added during onion caramelization. Request no bread or couscous.
Watch out for
High risk of added sugar for onion caramelization if not specified. Prunes and apricots are common and must be explicitly omitted. Onions, garlic, and spices contribute natural carbs.
