Afghan Lamb With Spinach

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350 Fahrenheit.

2. 2

   Dust the lamb cubes with the flour.

3. 3

   In a 3 quart nonstick ovenproof pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the lamb and cook until well-browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. This is best done in batches, as if the pieces of meat touch they will not brown properly. Remove meat from pot and set aside.

4. 4

   Add the onion and garlic to the pot and cook, stirring, until slightly softened, about 2 minutes.

5. 5

   Stir in the spices (turmeric through pepper), then stir in the tomatoes and water and bring to a boil. Return the lamb to the pot. Cover and place in the oven for 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until the lamb is soft.

6. 6

   Remove the pot from the oven and stir in the spinach until it is wilted. Stir in the yogurt, lemon zest, and slat.
