 FOR THE QUAIL:
 
 Split the quail, carefully remove the back and rib bones and brush with
 tamarind glaze. Grill the quail over a medium-hot fire 4 to 5 minutes, skin
 side down. Turn and grill another 2 to 3 minutes, taking care not to=
  overcook.
 
 Place purslane salad attractively on plates. Place grilled quail on top and
 garnish with mint sprigs, arugula and flower petals.
 
 FOR THE GLAZE:
 
 In a small skillet over medium heat, saute the garlic, shallots and ginger
 in olive oil until tender but not brown. Stir the sugar, fish sauce, water,
 tamarind concentrate and the lime juice together until well combined. Add to
 the garlic mixture and reduce over high heat by one-third or until slightly
 thickened. Remove from the heat and let cool. Store covered in the
 refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
 
 Yield: About 1/2 cup
 
 FOR THE SALAD:
 Wash the purslane and discard any tough stems or damaged leaves. Chop the
 onion and bell pepper and rinse in cold water. Place the onions and peppers
 in a bowl along with the purslane leaves, tomatoes, sumac, chile, lemon
 juice and olive oil. Gently mix and season with salt and pepper and garnish
 with roasted beets.
