This comes from "The Elephant Walk Cookbook," published by my all-time favorite restaurant, The Elephant Walk. If you're ever anywhere near Boston, make a point of finding your way to Porter Square in the Cambridge/Somerville area -- you'll find the restaurant a few blocks north on Mass. Ave. The food is unbelievably good!
