Ingredients to make rabbit tajine:
1. The first step to prepare this easy recipe will be to chop the rabbit. Eliminate as much fat as possible. Once chopped, enter the meat pieces into the traditional tajine, if you do not have you can use any casserole with a lid.
2. Next, add the saffron, cinnamon and broth along with garlic and onion, finely chopped. You can use an already prepared broth or do it homemade following this other recipe. Take the fire until it boils and then let cook over medium heat for about 15 minutes.
3. Finally add plums and honey. Stir softly until all the ingredients are integrated and let everything cook over medium heat until the rabbit meat is easily detached from the bone. This can take another 15 minutes. Try the broth and correct the seasoning if necessary.
4. If the rabbit tajine is left with a lot of liquid or very broth, you can rectify the texture by adding some cornstarch, previously diluted in a little of the same broth, to prevent lumps from forming.
5. Serve the hot rabbit tajine and decorate with the roasted cumin seeds and whole almonds. Accompany this variation of the traditional dish of Morocco with other typical such as Arabic rice or couscous.
