    Preheat oven to 350oF/175oC.

    Add all of the spices (ginger, cinnamon, coriander,
    nutmeg, pepper and salt) plus the 1/4 cup olive oil into a
    bowl and mix in the meat to coat.

    Heat a dutch oven or oven-safe pan (use one that has a
    lid) over a medium-high flame. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil
    and the onions and saute until translucent.

    Add the meat and cook until browned (about 8 minutes).

    Throw in the apricots, prunes and yams. Add broth or
    water.

    Cover with a piece of aluminum foil and then lid. Place in
    oven for 1 1/2 - 2 hours, or until fork tender.

    Skim off any fat. You can do this by letting it cool or
    even placing the the dish in fridge overnight. This stew
    is great the next day reheated.
