    Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
  --------  ------------  --------------------------------
       1/2           cup  black-eyed peas
    10 1/2        ounces  Swiss chard -- washed
    1                     leek -- fat-sized, washed, trimmed, chopped
                          To cook: -- olive oil
    2             cloves  garlic -- sliced
       1/4      teaspoon  ground nutmeg
       1/2      teaspoon  chili powder
                          fresh cilantro -- big handful, chopped
       3/4           cup  vegetable stock, ready-to-serve -- (generous)
    2        Tablespoons  tahina -- sesame seed paste
                          salt and black pepper -- to taste
  
  Cook the beans in water for around 40 minutes, or until tender, and then
  drain them.
  
  While the beans are cooking, prepare the chard: separate the leaves and
  the stalks, chopping the former roughly and the latter more finely.
  
  Toss the leek into some hot olive oil in a frying pan, followed by the
  garlic. Stir for a minute or so, then add the chard stalks. Cook for
  another 2 minutes, then add the chard leaves, spices, and cilantro. Stir
  well for a few moments and then stir in the black-eyed peas.
  
  Pour a little hot stock on to the tahina in a bowl, whisk thoroughly and
  then tip it back into the rest of the stock, and whisk again. Next pour
  the stock on to the greens, season to taste, and bubble gently for about 5
  minutes.
  
  Serve with lemon wedges and bread - Iranian nan-e-sangak (see page 13) is
  great with this, but any flatbread will do.

  AuthorNote: Funny stuff, Swiss chard. Firstly, it's not from Switzerland
  (according to Alan Davidson, it acquired the tag to distinguish it from
  French chard, which is different), It's like a hybrid between spinach and
  celery, except it has nothing to do with either. It is, rather, a cousin
  of the mangel-wurzel, and a distant relative of cardoon. It first cropped
  up in Ancient Babylon, and is popular throughout the Middle East. There
  are several colors to collect: it comes in red, yellow, white, or pale
  green, so I suppose you could buy the one that goes best with your kitchen
  tiles. It is readily available and fairly easy to grow. You can use the
  leaves and the stalks, and these take slightly different times to cook.
  
  This is based on a Palestinian recipe.
