Cooking Method

Tagine

  1. Clean the chicken giblets and chop them into even sized cubes. Toss them in flour, dusting off the excess.

  2. Heat 15ml of the canola oil in a heavy-bottom pot, with a lid, over a high heat. Add the floured chicken giblets and quickly fry off until golden then remove from the pot.

  3. Add the remaining 15ml oil to the pot over a medium heat.

  4. Add the onion and saute, scraping the bits stuck to the bottom of the pot, until soft. Add the garlic and cook for a further 5 minutes, being sure to not burn the garlic.

  5. Add the Robertson’s Ground Coriander, Robertson’s Ground Cumin, Robertson’s Paprika, Robertson’s Ground Cinnamon and tomato paste, and cook for a minute, until fragrant.

  6. Add the chicken giblets, sweet potato, lemon juice & zest, tin of tomatoes, Knorr Mutton & Vegetable Soup and Knorr Chicken stockpot. Stir to combine and bring to the boil.

  7. Once boiling, turn the heat down to a simmer and add the olives and sultanas. Cover with a lid and simmer for 1 hour.

  8. Five minutes before turning off, add the peas.

  9. Adjust seasoning with salt, pepper and lemon if need be.

Rice
