Chard with Ras el Hanout and Preserved Lemon

Traditionally, Moroccans would cook a hearty green like chard way down to an almost jam-like consistency. In this version, chef Mourad Lahlou takes a more Italian approach, blanching the greens and sautéing the stems. If you don’t have Urfa pepper, substitute red pepper flakes.
