DIRECTIONS
Place diced lamb in a bowl, toss with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, and set aside!. In a large resealable bag, toss together the paprika, turmeric, cumin, cayenne, cinnamon, cloves, cardamom, salt, ginger, saffron, garlic powder, and coriander; mix well!. Add the lamb to the bag, and toss around to coat well!. Refrigerate at least 8 hours, preferably overnight!.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large, heavy bottomed pot over medium-high heat!. Add 1/3 of the lamb, and brown well!. Remove to a plate, and repeat with remaining lamb!. Add onions and carrots to the pot and cook for 5 minutes!. Stir in the fresh garlic and ginger; continue cooking for an additional 5 minutes!. Return the lamb to the pot and stir in the lemon zest, chicken broth, tomato paste, and honey!. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, stirring occasionally, until the meat is tender!.
If the consistency of the tagine is too thin, you may thicken it with a mixture of cornstarch and water during the last 5 minutes!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
