This is an adaptation of a dish my husband cooks from Libya. As with all my recipes.... adapt it to your own tastes... add a little of this or leave out a little of that.... use a little more of this or a little less of that until you find how you like it. If you like HOT stuff I bet this would be good with some peppers but I wouldn't have a clue which kind would compliment it best.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 lb lamb, cut up
4 tomatoes, diced
1 onion, diced
2 tablespoons garlic, minced
1 cup tomato sauce
1/4 cup tomato paste
salt and pepper, to taste
parsley flakes, to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

1
Heat olive oil in large sauce pan and add garlic.
2
Brown the lamb all over and then add the tomato and onion and toss around a bit more.
3
Add all the other ingredients and stir well before covering with water.
4
Allow to boil for a while (maybe 20 minutes) and then you can turn down on low-medium to a slow rolling boil to cook the sauce down (maybe another 30 minutes or more).
5
When the sauce is a little thick (not like paste but not water either) it should be done.
6
Be sure to check the lamb to make sure it's done in the middle before you stop cooking it.
7
Serve over spaghetti noodles and top it with a little parmesian cheese OR over rice or couscous.
