Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Season the lamb on all sides with salt and black pepper, then rub with ras el hanout. Place the potatoes in a medium saucepan and cover with water to a depth of 2.5 cm; season with salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the potatoes are very tender, 12-15 minutes. Drain thoroughly.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the butter, lemon zest, most of the green onions (reserve 2 tablespoons for serving), finely chopped dill, and chopped cilantro; stir. Add to the potatoes and mash with a potato masher or large fork. Slowly add the milk, stirring. Season with salt and pepper to taste and cover to keep the puree warm.

  3. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add vegetable oil and heat until shimmering. Add the patties and cook until golden brown, about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare.
  4. Divide the lamb and mashed potatoes among bowls. Garnish with the remaining green onions, dill, and cilantro. Serve with harissa.
