made it up






Recipe Introduction


when these vegetables are in season make up a lot of these dishes and freeze them. You can use zucchini instead of eggplant or omit the tomatoes if u prefer. I suspect parboiled potatoes (cubed) would be a good addition either way too. Although these dishes make fine side dishes they are hearty and healthy enough to be mains. They are a quick ratatoille and a quick korma

as it stands serve 2, add more ingredients for more people
