MOROCCAN-STYLE LAMB TURNOVERS
Moroccan cuisine is filled with the scent of sweet and savory spices intermingling together. We think that is part of what makes the dishes of this North African country seem to have so much depth and complexity. Redolent with cinnamon, ginger, and cumin, these fragrant lamb turnovers, cousins to the Spanish empanadas, are a great example of this spice marriage. Adapted from the "Big Book of Appetizers" cookbook.

Steps:
- Mix together the cumin, ginger, turmeric, cinnamon, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Saute the onion until tender, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and the spice mixture and continue to cook for another minute. Add the lamb and cook, breaking up any lumps with the back of a wooden spoon, until no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Add the wine and tomato paste and cook until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the raisins, pine nuts, and cilantro. Taste for seasoning. Let cool and set aside.
- In a small bowl, beat together the egg and cream with a fork. Set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 375ºF. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper. Divide the puff pastry in half. Work with half of the dough at a time, while keeping the other half chilled. On a lightly floured surface, roll half of the dough into a 12-by-15-inch rectangle. Cut into twenty 3-inch squares. Place a scant tablespoon of the filling in the center of each square. Brush the edges lightly with the egg wash. Fold each pastry into a triangle, enclosing the filling, and crimp the edges with a fork. Cut a small steam vent in the top of each turnover. Brush the tops lightly with more egg wash. Set on the prepared baking sheets. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
- Bake the turnovers until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Serve warm.
- Make ahead: These can be frozen in a single layer on a baking sheet until solid, transferred to a freezer bag, and stored in the freezer for 1 month. They can be baked right from the freezer, adding 3 to 4 minutes to the baking time.

- In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onions and water and sauté until caramel- ized, around 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the onions from the pan and set aside in a bowl.
- In the same pan where you caramelized the onions, add the ground lamb, garlic, cumin, cinnamon, salt, ginger, cayenne pepper and black pepper and cook over medium-high heat until cooked through, around 5-7 minutes. Stir the lamb mixture occasionally.
- Add the caramelized onions to the cooked ground lamb mixture. Stir in the all-purpose flour until the flour has dissolved completely and the liquid from the meat has reduced, around 2 minutes over medium-high heat. The lamb mixture should be thick.
