Talimatlar
- 1.In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat 1 tbsp of olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the lamb with salt and pepper, and brown on all sides. Remove the lamb and set aside.
- 2.Add the remaining olive oil to the pot. Sauté the chopped onion, garlic, and carrot for 5-7 minutes until softened.
- 3.Stir in the cumin, ginger, cinnamon, and turmeric, and cook for another minute until fragrant.

- 6.Add the diced zucchini to the tagine and continue to simmer, covered, for another 10-15 minutes, or until the lamb is tender and the sauce has thickened slightly.
