Slow Cooker Moroccan Mutton Stew with Spiced Fruits
This dish is amazing and incredibly tender. The spices don’t over power the lamb at all and they add wonderful layers of flavour. This makes enough for 4 so we have another portion to freeze (yippee). I love how you can put it in the slow cooker and it looks after itself whilst releasing yummy…
