just made moroccan fruit tagine for the first time -- which couldn't be easier (see below)

i think i shd have used a bit less butter and cooking apples not granny smiths, and the parsley i didn't have, but it's lovely (it's a claudia roden recipe)

i: joint chicken*
ii: chop two onions
iii: put chicken and onions in aztec marmite (or other pot w.lid) and cover with boiled water, 3 tbs of butter, two tsps of ginger, chicken stock cube, salt and pepper
iv: bring to boil, simmer for an hour (until chicken is super-tender and sauce reduces)
v: peel, core and slice four apples
vi: add apples, cook till soft (but not losing shape)

serve w.rice or couscous

*my new scary sharp fancy japanese kitchen knife i bought myself cut through chicken-bone like kraft cheese -- possibly it is SUBTLE and i can slice my way through into other worlds!
