INSTRUCTIONS
This recipe is very good, also very unusual, I've never seen another
similar. It's based on a dish by Mark McEwen from North 44 , supposed to be
one of Toronto's best reastaurants. I've never been there. Alexandra??

1) Heat olive oil in Dutch oven. Add garlic, ginger, leeks, cook gently
until leeks wilt. Add a little water if pan appears dry.
2) Add carrots, fennel, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and squash. Combine well
and cook about 20 minutes.
3) Add vinegar, honey, chili paste, and five-spice powder. Bring to a boil.
4) Add tomatoes, corn and chickpeas. Cook for 10-15 minutes longer,
uncovered, until thick and stew-like.
5) Add sesame oil, cilantro and basil. Taste and adjust seasonings if
necessary.
Serves 6-8.
