North African Soup

    Cuisine:

      I was thinning out some of my cookbooks and wanted to find some ethnic recipes that could be used in the Zaar World Tours. This recipe is from the Reader's Digest Just One Pot cookbook. A savory soup dish made with lamb, onions, garbanzo beans, lentils, tomatoes and rice and flavored with parsley, cilantro, saffron, ginger and a small cinnamon stick. I haven't made this yet, but it certainly sounds interesting. Time does not include time to soak beans.
