Moroccan-Style Pulled Lamb Shoulder with Jewelled Couscous & Mint Yogurt

Name: Moroccan-Style Pulled Lamb Shoulder with Jewelled Couscous & Mint Yogurt
Prep time: 20 min
Cook time: 380 min
Total time: 400 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 Lamb shoulder (approx. 2kg), bone-in; 3 Garlic cloves, minced; 1 tbsp Ground cumin; 1 tbsp Ground coriander; 1 tspn Cinnamon; 1 tspn Smoked paprika; 1 Zest of lemon; 2 tbsp Olive oil; Pinch Salt; Pinch Pepper; 1 tbsp Preserved lemon, finely chopped; 1 Onion, sliced; 1 Carrot, chopped; 500 ml Beef or vegetable stock; 250 g Couscous; 300 ml Boiling stock or water; 50 g Raisins or chopped dried apricots; 1 handful Fresh mint, chopped; 1 handful Fresh coriander or parsley, chopped; 1 tbsp Seeds from pomegranate / sundried tomatoes; 50 g Toasted almonds or pistachios, roughly chopped; 1 Juice of lemon; Drizzle Olive oil; Pinch Salt; 200 g Greek yogurt; 1 handful Mint, finely chopped; 1/2 Juice of 1/2 lemon; 1 pinch Salt; 1 small Garlic clove, grated

Succulent, aromatic, and deeply comforting, this Moroccan-Style Pulled Lamb Shoulder is the ultimate centrepiece for a special gathering or a hearty family feast. Slow-roasted with warm spices like cumin, coriander, and cinnamon, the lamb becomes melt-in-your-mouth tender. I've paired it with couscous, but flatbreads (or any other carb you fancy) works! A cooling mint yogurt sauce ties everything together with its creamy zing.
