Moroccan Greens

---

A vegetable dish which can be served as one of several dishes in a vegetarian moroccan banquet or as a side dish to a meat dish, in which case it would serve many more than 6 people. this recipe for moroccan greens has been adapted and posted for the 2005 zaar world tour from a recipe which i found on huey's website. Huey (iain hewitson) is an australian chef who has written several recipe books and hosts a popular tv cooking show twice daily on weekdays. he also runs tolarno's restaurant in melbourne. Whenever vegetable stock is an ingredient in a recipe, as it is in this recipe, i use my vegetable stock recipe #135453 because it is heaps more flavoursome than any other vegetable stock i had previously come across.
