I absolutely adore this lamb shank dish because of the balance of flavours that pomegranate gives the rich meat. And you don't have to make this with lamb shank, try lamb shoulder too!

Everyone loves hummus and sometimes you just want to mix it up and add some more flavours to it. Enter this pomegranate and walnut hummus based on a dip that I bought. It uses pomegranate juice and is decorated with pomegranate arils!

I love the flavour and crunch of these slender pastry cigars or briouats. They're stuffed with Moroccan spiced beef and olives. If you have a packet of ras el hanout in your spice pantry, use it for these delicious pastries!
