I didn't have ginger nor cloves, substituted paprika for cayenne and sprinkled cinnamon instead of using cinnamon sticks. I also used a large sweet potato instead of a yam. With these changes, it is good but a little too sweet, even after adding salt, and I had cut down on the raisins. I used jarred chickpeas so only simmered for 30 minutes. Next time, I'll use a little less water, because it's a little watery, a sprinkle of red pepper flakes, and try a regular potato to balance the sweetness. I also suggest serving over rice.
