- Ensure the lamb mince is fresh and of high quality for the best flavor.
- Soak the bread crumbs in a small amount of milk to keep the meatballs moist and tender.
- Use fresh coriander leaves to enhance the flavor profile of the dish.
- If you prefer a spicier dish, add a pinch of chili powder or fresh chopped chilies to the spice mix.
- Cook the meatballs in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, which helps them brown evenly.
- For a richer sauce, simmer the canned tomatoes with a splash of stock or red wine.
- Allow the tagine to rest for a few minutes after cooking so the flavors can meld together beautifully.
- Serve with a side of yogurt or tzatziki to add a refreshing contrast to the rich flavors.
