Step 1
Preparation: Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Once hot, add the lamb pieces and brown them on all sides. Remove and set aside.

In the same pot, add the minced garlic and grated ginger. Sauté for about a minute until fragrant.
Step 3
Add the spices (cumin, coriander, paprika, and chili powder) to the pot. Stir well for another minute.
Step 4
Return the browned lamb to the pot, and mix well to coat the meat with the spices.
Step 5
Add the diced eggplant, tomatoes, and bell peppers to the pot. Stir well.
Step 6
Pour in the chickpeas and water. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 30 minutes.
Step 7
After 30 minutes, add the roughly chopped spinach and season with salt and pepper. Let it simmer for another 10 minutes.
Step 8
