Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 cup sliced almonds
3 tsp olive oil
2 brown onions, halved, thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
2 large carrots, cut into short sticks
3 tsp ground cumin
3 tsp ground ginger
1 1/2 tsp ground turmeric
1 cup chicken stock
2 (400 g) cans diced tomatoes
2 (400 g) cans chickpeas
1/2 cup dried pitted dates
50 g baby spinach leaves
1 tbsp honey
3 tsp lemon juice or 1/2 tsp citric acid
fresh coriander sprig, to serve
ground cinnamon, to serve
couscous, to serve

Directions:

Preheat oven to 180°C.
Spread the almonds over a baking tray. Bake in oven for 4 minutes or until toasted. Transfer to a heatproof bowl. (You can also toast these in the microwave if preferred).
Heat oil in a deep frypan or wok over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic and carrot, and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until the onion is soft. Add the cumin, ginger and turmeric, and stir to coat and toast the spices.
Add the stock and tomatoes. Bring to the boil. Add the chickpeas and dates. Simmer until the sauce thickens to desired consistency and carrots are cooked, about 10-15 minutes.
Roll up the spinach leaves and slice finely, and add to the tagine, allowing it to wilt. Stir in the honey and lemon juice/citric acid. Season with salt and pepper as required.
Divide the tagine among the serving dishes (on cous cous if desired). Sprinkle with almonds and cinnamon. Top with coriander to serve.
