Lamrija of lamb (Tunisian stew with silky sauce)

Lamrija of lamb is a traditional Tunisian dish, rich and creamy thanks to a spiced oil and flour paste that gives the sauce a silky texture. The stew simmers for a long time, releasing the aromas of coriander, caraway, black pepper and bay leaf, while the lamb becomes melt-in-the-mouth tender. Served hot, it pairs perfectly with homemade bread or couscous.
