LA SOUPE AUX POIS CHICHES, LA COURGE ROUGE E CORIANDRE Soup with Chickpeas, Pumpkin and Coriander In the Moroccan and Tunisian Jewish kitchens, there are numerous versions of this hearty classic: a bean and pumpkin squash soup. Some cooks use dried favas or white beans instead of chick- peas. Some omit greens altogether. And some add meat. This stick-to-your-ribs dish could be a full meal, paired with bread or a salad. 1 pound chickpeas, soaked overnight 1 large onion, chopped 1 carrot, chopped 2 pounds butternut squash or pump- kin, peeled, and cut into 1 inch cubes Salt Chicken stock or bouillon cube and water 1/4 cup chopped fresh coriander, divided Salt Pepper 1/2 t. cinnamon Leaves from 1 or 2 bunches Swiss chard, cut into strips (stems reserved for another dish) Sugar, if needed In a soup pot, place drained chick- peas, onions, carrot and squash. Add bouillon cube and water or stock to cover and half of the coriander. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 40 minutes, or until contents are tender. Pass through a food mill. Reheat soup and season to taste with salt, pep- per and cinnamon. In a separate pan, wilt the greens in a bit of water, drain well and add to the pureed soup. Warm through, stirring the soup often to prevent scorching. Sprinkle with the remaining coriander. Serve hot. Makes 6-8 servings. SALADE DE C_AROTTES ET CUMIN Moroccan Carrot Salad with Cumin North African carrot salads can be savory, spicy or sweet. The carrots may be cut in rounds, in julienne strips or cooked until they are soft enough to be mashed. An Algerian version of the recipe increases the garlic to 3 cloves, adds a pinch of ground caraway and uses vinegar instead of lemon. Cooked beets may be prepared with the same dressing. 1 pound carrots 1 clove garlic, smashed 1/4 cup lemon juice 1 t. cumin 1 t. paprika 1/8 t. cayenne pepper, optional 2 T. olive oil Salt Cut carrots into thin slices or juli- enne strips. Cook in boiling salted water along with a smashed clove of garlic, until tender, about 5-8 minutes. Drain. While warm, toss with the drained crushed garlic clove and the lemon juice mixed with spices. Stir in olive oil and season with salt to taste. Makes 4-6 servings. SALADE D'ORANGES Moroccan Orange Salad with Olives Refreshing, colorful and a perfect foil for spicy foods, orange salads are popu- lar throughout Morocco. The oranges can be peeled and cut into rounds or served in segments. They may be paired with thinly sliced radishes for a subtle hint of heat. Sometimes they are dressed with sugar and lemon juice and sprinkled with cinnamon or hot pepper. This version comes from Jacqueline Cohen-Azuelos' Fleur de Safran. 2 pounds blood oranges and 1 pound bitter oranges or bergamots or 3 pounds oranges 1 t. ground cumin 1 t. sweet paprika 1 t. cinnamon 2 cloves garlic, chopped, optional Salt Freshly ground black pepper Juice of 2 lemons 4 T. olive oil 1/2 pound black olives, pitted 1 bunch fresh coriander, leaves only Peel the oranges, removing all white pith, and cut into segments or slice into rounds.
