If seems to strong remember that you will be having it with food. Also if you needs a bit of sweetness, add some honey or if it seems a bit flat add some lemon juice. If it needs heat go ahead.
DIRECTIONS FOR LEMON SAUCE:
Beat the three eggs until froth starts to form and gently add the lemon juice as you continue to blend. Add one cup of the lamb stock slowly to the mixture. Slowly add the mixture to the stewing pot while stirring well. Remove the pot from the stove and ladle into your favorite serving bowls.
