Notes: Personal Note* We were studing the history of how the Moors invaded Spain and the effects that has on their culture even today. This meal has many ingrediants that the Moors brought with them. The kids loved the meal and thought it was especially fun to eat it on a low
constructed table on the floor whial sitting on pillows! Infact it is by thier insistance that it is included in this cookbook.
