To make Lamb Cholent, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

To start, preheat your oven to 250°F. In a large oven-safe pot or Dutch oven, layer the lamb, beans, onion, potato, and carrot. Sprinkle the paprika, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper over the top. Pour in the water and cover the pot with a lid.
