This lamb stew with quince and gombo belongs to the family of slow-cooked North African dishes, sometimes called tagine. Traditionally cooked for hours over low heat in a clay or metal pot, they can also be prepared in a pressure cooker, which speeds up the process and results in slightly less intense flavors.
