In a large sauce pan gently fry the onion in the olive oil until soft. Add lamb, ginger, and coriander to the pan and cook until it changes color.

Add cumin, black pepper, cinnamon, and water to just cover the meat. Salt to taste. Cover and simmer gently until the meat is tender, about 1.5-2 hours.

If there seems to be a bit too much liquid, displace the lid after an hour of cooking. Add the pears to the meat together with almonds. Cook for a further 5 minutes or until the pears are soft.

For a different twist on this, you can substitute mixed vegetables of your choice, instead of pear. It would make it more savory than sweet.
