We like to take the different flavors from ethnic recipes and incorporate them into our own recipes. This one combines Middle Eastern and Indian flavors, and tastes sweet and tart but not overpowering. This dish should be eaten slowly and savored to enjoy all the different flavors. -CL Reader Ingredients:
