Water for the Sauce
a) Boil a half-full kettle.

b) Pick the mint leaves from their stalks and finely chop (discard the stalks).
a) Once the lamb has browned, add the garlic, harissa paste, chermoula spice mix (add less of both if you'd prefer things milder) and tomato puree. Cook for 1 min more.
b) Stir in the water for the sauce (see pantry for amount) and chicken stock paste. Season with salt and pepper.
c) Bring to the boil, then cook until the sauce is slightly thickened, 2-3 mins.
a) Meanwhile, mix together the yoghurt and half the mint in a small bowl.
b) Season to taste with salt and pepper.
a) Once the sauce has thickened, add the cooked rice to the lamb and mix well to combine.
