Savory Lamb Stew

The overuse of nutmeg made this nearly impossible to eat. The couscous addition is also not all that great, especially if you want leftovers. This was not good, at all. 

I made this with a 3lbs pot roast, tenderized the meat, used 7 cloves of garlic, marinated it for a solid 14 hours overnight, used 2 cups of short-grain brown rice instead of couscous (which required 6 cups of chicken stock). I thought the amount of nutmeg was fine, but I also used more meat. It's also cheaper to buy regular carrots instead of baby carrots... so i did that. And halfway through the cooking i added in 1 yellow onion--in chunks--and 2 stalks of diced celery with 1 Tbsp of the parsley (I didn't use any for garnish afterward). During the six hours it was cooking, I put a layer of foil over the mixture to help keep moisture in. Turned out really good! :) would definitely make it again.

Definitely too much nutmeg and the carrots didn't work with the lamb.
