Look.. I know it's been ages since I posted something.
and this draft has been hanging out forever ... so I'm just going to post it.
Because you all should make this. I cobbled together a few Moroccan Beef recipes from the interwebs and came up with this.
So, please forgive my incredibly lame post and just make the recipe... okay?

2 pounds of ground beef
3 tbsp olive oil

- Sprinkle the coriander, cumin, cinnamon, and cayenne over the top and stir to combine. Cook until fragrant, about one minute
- Now is a good time for a sprinkle of salt and pepper.
- Shove all of the stuff in the skillet to the edges and crumble the ground beef into the middle.
- Break up the ground beef and cook, mixing in the rest of the ingredients, until the beef is cooked through and everything is well combined

- Stir in the raisins.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning
- Serve over brown rice with a dollop of yogurt
Notes
- If you are one of those people who feel that raisins ruin everything, go ahead and substitute ¼ cup of chopped dried apricots.
