METHOD

and the honey, then add the sorghum, tomatoes, stock, pumpkin, mushrooms and the cinnamon sticks. Bring to the boil, cover the pan then reduce the heat and cook gently for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Uncover and continue to cook until the vegetables are tender.
To serve: Divide the tagine between bowls and top with coriander, dollops of yoghurt, almonds and lemon wedges. Drizzle with a little olive oil and a grind of pepper and serve with warm crusty bread.
