👨🍳 步驟

For the stew: Pat the lamb dry and season with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Brown the lamb in batches until golden on all sides. Remove lamb and set aside.

Add the chopped onions to the pot and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Stir in the mashed tomatoes and tomato paste, cooking for 2-3 minutes. Add the cumin, turmeric, and black pepper, stirring to combine.

Return the browned lamb to the pot. Add the carrots, sweet potatoes, bell peppers, and bay leaves. Pour in 6 cups of water, ensuring the lamb and vegetables are mostly submerged. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for at least 2 hours, or until the lamb is very tender.

While the stew simmers, prepare the millet cakes: In a bowl, combine millet flour, wheat flour, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Gradually add water (about 1 to 1.5 cups) to form a pliable dough. Knead briefly.
💡 專業提示: The dough should be firm but not sticky. - 6
Divide the dough into 6 equal portions and flatten each into a round cake, about 6 inches in diameter. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook the millet cakes for about 5-7 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.
