Instructions Jump to Ingredients ↑

  1. Heat the oil in a heavy 12-inch saut pan or high-sided skillet over high heat. Add the lamb, onion, and cinnamon and cook, stirring occasionally, until the lamb loses its pink color, about 3 minutes. Drain off the fat.

  2. Gradually add the broth, 1 cup of water, and the salt. Blend in the harissa. Bring to a boil.

  3. Stir in the bulgur, chickpeas, and prunes. Set the block of spinach on top. Cover and cook over high heat for 5 minutes.

  4. Break up the spinach and stir it in. Cover and continue cooking over medium heat for 5 minutes. Stir in a bit more water if the mixture seems dry and the bulgur is not quite tender. Adjust the seasonings, adding black pepper to taste and more harissa, if desired. Turn off the heat and let sit for 5 minutes or until ready to serve.

  5. Stir in the pine nuts and 1/4 cup cilantro. Garnish individual portions with the remaining cilantro.
