How to make it
- Put lamb cubes in medium sized pot along with the water or stock (lamb stock is best if you can make it or buy it). Bring the water to boil and skim off the little bit of froth that forms.
- Add the onion, lentils, tomatoes, tomato paste, turmeric, ground cinnamon, cinnamon stick, ginger, salt and pepper and allow the pot to simmer very gently for about 60 minutes (lamb will become very tender).
- Add the chickpeas, celery and smashed pasta and allow to simmer for another 15 minutes. Add the lemon juice and coriander (cilantro) and stir through then turn off heat and let soup stand to cool slightly before serving.
- Enjoy.
