| 1. Place onions in the tagine base with 1/2 tbsp olive oil and brown well over a high heat. Add the rest of the olive oil and the beef and cook until well browned and sealed all over. Add the garlic and cook for a further 30 seconds, before adding all the spices except the cinnamon sticks. | 2. Make up the beef stock my mixing 1/2 pint of boiling water with 1 beef stock cube, honey and the cinnamon sticks - Maggi or Oxo work very well! Set aside. | 3. Turn the heat down. Add the carrots, tomatoes, dates, prunes, raisins and stock, carefully mix together with wooden spoon and season to taste with salt and pepper. | 4. Place lid over the tagine base and cook on a low heat for approx 4 1/2 hours. This may take a little longer or a little less cooking so check your tagine at around 3 hours of cooking to see how things are progressing. | 5. The tagine will be ready when the beef is 'melting' and the sauce is thick and bursting with all the flavours. | 6. Before serving, remove the cinnamon sticks and sprinkle the coriander over the top of the dish. | 7. Serve the tagine in its base with fresh baked bread or steamed cous cous. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
