Lamb Tagine with dates, almonds and pistachios

I definitely had a bit of a Moroccan feel going on this week
and this was a great dish to use up some of those dates that have been hanging around since Christmas!


The supermarket didn't have any diced lamb, so I ended up buying a small, lamb shoulder joint and cutting out the bone and dicing it myself.
It was fiddly, but well worth doing - the meat was beautifully tender and delicious.
I would have served it with a mound of buttery couscous, but Mr Kiss is 'allergic' to it. (He says he's not eating wall-paper paste), so we had it with fat chips, which did a great job of soaking up the rich sauce.
