Description
Combining sweet flavors with savory flavors, this leg of lamb features honey and dried apricots. Seasoned with cayenne pepper, cinnamon, and ginger, not only is this dish sweet, but it also packs a bit of heat. Simmered on low heat with the spices for an hour, the leg of lamb becomes extremely tender and flavorful. Served with couscous, this leg of lamb channels all the flavors of North African cuisine.
