Process

Step 1

Step 2

Slightly, heat the olive oil, add the vegetables and sauté together for 5 minutes. Mix in all the spice, cover, and cook on low heat for an extra 20 minutes making sure to stir in the vegetables occasionally.

Step 3

Spread a layer of the lamb and freekeh pilaf on a platter, top it with a layer of carrots and peas then sprinkle it with your favorite fried nuts. Garnish with some chopped parsley and serve it warm with a side of salad and yogurt.
