One Good Dish
By David Tanis
Artisan - 2013
Moroccan Carrots : page 59
We eat North African-ish food frequently. This is a good addition to the salad repetoire.
Rather than toasting and grinding seeds tonight, I used home-made ground roasted cumin seeds from the larder and plain ground coriander seeds. Didn't feel like mincing up the preserved lemon, but that would be a good addition on a more energetic evening.
Keeper recipe.

Peppery Duck Steaks with Parsley Salad : page 185
Very good. The "fluffy" parsley salad went surprisingly well with the duck.
I cooked my magret using Patricia Wells' instructions for Seared Duck Breast with Espelette Pepper Jelly in Vegetable Harvest, that is, 8min on the skin side, turn over for 3min, turn back for 3min. Perfect. Tanis' duck breast would have been way underdone. I like it rosé, but really "raw" shouldn't be what you think when you see it.
The coating is delicious (black pepper and garlic); my husband was eating bits out of the skillet after dinner.

Tunisian Meatballs : page 141
I've made this twice now, once from the web and again from the book, now that I have it. Very good.
This would be a good company dish since you can make the sauce and the meatballs ahead and reheat together at the last minute.

Wok-Fried Lamb with Cumin : page 204
This was easy and very tasty. The full recipe served us two generously; three servings would work; four would be mighty skimpy.
