Tutor's tips

  • For the most authentic flavor, sear the lamb on a cast-iron grill pan to achieve smoky char marks.
  • If ricing cauliflower manually, use a box grater’s large holes to ensure a texture that mimics couscous rather than mush.
  • Let the lamb mixture rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before shaping to help the spices penetrate the meat.
