Cinnamon-scented lamb with eggplant

Cinnamon-scented lamb with eggplant

A wonderfully harmonious recipe from that ever-reliable master of flavour, Neil Perry, combining the sweetness of slow-braised lamb shoulder with aromatic spices, meltingly soft roast eggplant, fresh mint and tangy, sweet-sour, vinegar-soaked raisins. Pile it into bowls midweek with a side of mash, or make it the centrepiece of a weekend dinner party, with cous cous and the full Middle-Eastern leaning spread. 

To Serve

This dish can go so many ways. Treat it as a family-style casserole and serve with buttered mash and a salad, green beans or big pile of garlicky spinach or kale. Or dress it up with a bed of cous cous stirred through with almonds, preserved lemon and spring onions. Slivered green pistachios finish the dish nicely.
