Recipe needed !

I was listening to the radio the other day and this bloke was telling this story of a recipe he had seen whilst on his travels.
Now, this is a bit sketchy...I tuned in half way through the conversation, so forgive me for not having too many details here :doh:
The bloke is the one who does the tax returns adverts
.He is also on the history channel a lot.
He was telling this story about these wood burning stoves choking people to death, and there was an educational program going around to get these villagers to fit cooker hoods to take the smoke away from the mud buildings.
Towards the end of the story, he told of this recipe where they fried these onions to soften them, then added tomatoes and water and finally chucked in a lot of cabbage and left it to stew for a while.
He said he was going to try it as it was soooooo good.
Can anyone fill in the blanks here please !!

Sorry Rob, but as I have two hours left to submit my tax return to that guy off the adverts
I have no time to think of recipes!
Lots of black coffee needed, that is if I liked black coffee

Didn't hear the radio programme, but I presume you're talking about Adam Hart-Davies? (or something like that!)Sealed Pot Challenge #021 #8 975.71 #9 £881.44 #10 £961.13 #11 £782.13 #12 £741.83 #13 £2135.22 #14 £895.53 #15 £1240.40 #16 £1805.87 #17 £1820.01 declared0

Hi rob,
I love the way you are always so specific. Can you remember if it was a vegetarian dish or have you missed out the meat? You could always take a look in the mega index to see if you can find something similar.
