In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sauté until the onion is translucent.
Make sure to stir occasionally to prevent burning.Cook the Lamb
Add the lamb cubes to the skillet. Season with cumin, paprika, coriander, salt, and pepper. Cook until the lamb is browned and cooked through.
