1
Preheat the oven to 350u00b0F. Season lamb generously. Heat oil in Dutch oven on high heat. Brown lamb in batches. Remove from pan.

Pour excess fat from pan. Reduce heat to medium. Cook onions until they begin to soften. Add ground spices and gently stir to release flavors. Add garlic, ginger, cilantro and chili pepper; cook for 2 mins. Add stock; bring to a boil. Add undrained tomatoes, tamarind and cinnamon.

Return meat to pan. Cover and bake in oven for 40 mins. Remove from oven. Stir in prunes and bake for 30 mins. The meat should now be very tender; if not, cook a little longer.

Meanwhile, cook sweet potatoes in boiling salted water until soft. Drain; mash with butter until light and fluffy. Season.
