- Crockpot Method: Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and saute, stirring occasionally, until it starts to brown, about 5 minutes.

Add the carrots and cook for another 3-4 minutes, stirring regularly. Add the ras el hanout and tomato paste and let it cook for 30 seconds until the tomato paste starts to caramelize.
- Crockpot Method: Transfer everything into your crockpot. Add the sweet potatoes, apricots, ginger, salt, dates, garlic, cinnamon sticks, and 4 cups of water to your crockpot and stir well. Set your crockpot for 8 hours on low.Instant Pot Method: Add the sweet potatoes, apricots, ginger, salt, dates, garlic, cinnamon sticks, and 4 cups of water to your Instant Pot. Secure the lid and put the valve into the sealed position. Turn on the Manual or Pressure Cook function and pressure cook for 8 minutes. Let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes and then manually vent to release the remaining pressure.
- Both Methods: When the tagine has finished cooking, stir in the chickpeas. Let them warm for a few minutes then serve the tagine over some steamed couscous with some chopped almonds, cilantro, mint, olives, and a squeeze of lemon over top.
