  1. Place the cubed eggplant in a colander, salt it and let it drain for 20 min. Rinse well and set aside.

  5. Add in the dark chicken meat along with the carrot, zucchini, turnip and red pepper. Simmer, uncovered, for 10 min.
  6. Add in the chicken breasts, tomato, raisins and 1 Tbsp. of the coriander, pushing down lightly to be sure the ingredients are covered by the liquid.
  7. Simmer, covered, for 10 min more. Salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Serve warm in deep soup bowls on top of rice, noodles or possibly couscous, garnishing the top with the remaining coriander.
  9. Comments: I first tasted this dish at my friend Ben's Marrakesh Restaurant in Seattle. He does a fine job with his food and the place is a delight with all its formal Moroccan trappings.
