    Instructions
    1. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the beef on all sides, working in batches if necessary to prevent overcrowding the pan. Transfer the beef to a slow cooker and add the onion, carrots, beef broth, crushed tomatoes, dates, garlic, ginger, cumin, paprika, cinnamon and salt.
    2. Cook the stew on low heat until the beef and vegetables are tender, about 8 hours.
    3. Turn off the slow cooker and stir in the spinach, almonds, chickpeas and lemon zest & juice. Let it warm through as you make the couscous.
    4. Bring the water and salt to a boil in a medium saucepan. Stir in the couscous and raisins, cover and remove from the heat. Let sit undisturbed for 5 minutes. Stir to fluff the couscous.
    5. Serve the stew over the couscous.
    Notes
    1. Make this stew in stages for the ultimate make ahead meal. Step 1 can be completed the night before serving. Cover the slow cooker insert and refrigerate overnight. The next morning; place in the insert in the slow cooker and set it on low for 8 hours.
