    And when your back stops aching,
    And your hands begin to harden.
    You will find yourself a partner,
    In the glory of the garden.

          I think it is one of those flavours which you hate at first and then grow to crave. YUM YUM

            I'm going to try this today. Sounds delicious. Is it a Morrocan or Turkish recipe?

              Thanks bramble, I was looking for an aubergine and potato recipe that wasn't a sloppy curry recipe. Cakes sound good.

              If at first you don't succeed, open a bottle of wine.
