How to prepare it step by step?

Preparation

1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onions and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
2. Add the garlic, cumin, cinnamon, and sweet paprika, cooking for 2 minutes until fragrant.
3. Add the lamb pieces and cook until golden brown on all sides, approximately 8 minutes.
4. Add the tomatoes, carrots, peppers, meat concentrate, coriander powder, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
5. Pour water to approximately cover the ingredients, add the rosemary sprig, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 1 hour and 10 minutes.
6. During the last 20 minutes of cooking, add the peas and lemon wedges. Continue to cook until the vegetables are tender and the lamb is very tender.
7. Remove the rosemary sprig and serve hot, ideally in traditional tagines.
