If mixture is still too dry, add more. Toss and adjust seasoning. Sprinkle with minced cilantro and garnish with cilantro sprigs. Serve hot, room temperature or chilled. 4 servings.

BARTHS IN THE FRENCH WEST INDIES. ** This is a most appealing, upbeat meal. And although I like these dishes served hot, they are also good served at room temperature or chilled in hot weather. Snow peas make an excellent addition to the plate. ** A warm orange cake served with warm orange syrup from Mayas, a restaurant perched right on the waters edge, is a delicious finish for the meal. For a more festive appearance, serve sliced, sugared strawberries or raspberries on the side. ** Mandel is a cookbook author.
