Steps

1

Wash the lamb well and pat dry. Prepare all the ingredients and spices.
2

Chop the onions and get your baking dish ready. Add the oil and onions, and sauté over medium heat.
3

Add the lamb and stir.
4

Add the spices shown in the picture and stir.
5

Add the garlic and mix everything together.
6

Add the vegetables, then add the chopped cilantro. Stir and let cook over the heat for 2 1/2 hours.
7

Let it cook until the lamb is very tender. Do not add water; it cooks in the juices from the onions and lamb.
8

After 2 1/2 hours, add the vegetables and cook for another 15 minutes. The vegetables don’t take long to cook.
9

Add the olives on top.
10

Prepare the dough and let it rise for 30 minutes.
11

Roll out the dough.
12

Cover the top of the dish with the dough, make small holes, and brush the top with egg yolk.
13

Place in a preheated oven and bake until the dough is cooked through and turns a light golden color.
14

Remove from the oven, cut open the crust with a sharp knife, and serve.
