gather round fellow gastronauts,this is how the tale unfolds
.i was seeking inspiration for tonights repast & stumbled upon a jar of preserved lemons that i had made last spring & forgotten about,ah hah,thought i,for i also remembered a long forgotten stewing pack of cheap cuts of lamb languishing in the dingy depths of my freezer,next to mr yamamoto...you remember mr y...the japanese soldier who didn't know the war had ended?..no?...anyway the thought of said two foodstuffs transported me to the exotic warmth of morocco & the equally exotic warmth of laila who i met under a star filled sky in the night market of marrakech.laila taught me a few things,steady in the ranks
,including tagine cookery.so laila if you are reading this,in the words of rod stewart "think of me & try not to laugh" harry & laila's ras el hanout lamb tagine with jewelled giant saffron cous cous
