This recipe is highly unusual, hereabouts. My husband ate it as a
little boy. His mother brought the recipe from the Ukraine. The only
other time I heard it mentioned by the name "Richard" was in an
interview with Rudolph Nureyev, before his death. He said that
"Richard" was one of his most favorite dishes when he was small.
The mushrooms are optional, that's something I added.

Flavonoid foods
(inlcudes lettuce, fennel, lima bean & chamomile)
The nutrients called 'flavonoids' which exist in these foods are thought by experts to have properties as anti-carcinogens.
