Marinate the lamb with garlic, ginger, cumin, coriander, turmeric, cardamom, cinnamon, olive oil, salt, and pepper.

Cover the marinated lamb and refrigerate for several hours or overnight.

Preheat the oven to a low temperature, around 120°C (250°F).

Wrap the marinated lamb in banana leaves, ensuring it is well-sealed.

Place the wrapped lamb in a deep baking dish.

Add a small amount of water to the bottom of the dish to create steam.

Cover the dish tightly with foil to trap moisture.

Cook the lamb in the preheated oven for 8-12 hours until tender.

Remove the lamb from the oven and let it rest for 30 minutes before unwrapping.

Serve the lamb with lemon juice and fresh herbs, accompanied by dates.
