Braised Lamb Shawarma with Pearl Couscous

You will savor every bite of this decadent dish that is one of Chef Einat’s specialties. Lamb is infused with shawarma spice, a signature spice blend in Middle Eastern cuisine, and braised until falling off the bone tender and juicy. The lamb is served over Israeli couscous, red onion-sumac salad– an acidic side that often accompanies rich meat dishes– and topped with a creamy tahini sauce.
