    I’ve been stressed lately, hence why I haven’t posted for a few days, sorry! banana 135 I’ve been planning a vacation, and you know how it involves a whole lot of time and research.  banana 138 I’m exhausted of researching and calling different groups of people to make this trip happen.  In the end, it better be worth it.  Smile banana 113 Here is a very quick Indian subzi I made with brinjal, red pepper, and a potato.  It goes really well with roti and yogurt on the side.  Enjoy! banana 107 NUTRITION: Brinjals are a very good source of Fiber and Vitamin B1.  Potatoes are a very good source of Vitamin C and are also rich in fiber, however keep in mind they are a high source of carbohydrates.  Bell Peppers are a great source of Vitamins A, B6, and C. INGREDIENTS:

    • Olive Oil – 2 tbsp
    • Nigella Seeds (Kalonji) – ½ tsp
    • Cumin Seeds – 1 tsp
    • Green Chilies – 2 (chopped)
    • Garlic – 2 (chopped)
    • Brinjals – 7 (sliced)
    • Turmeric Powder – ½ tsp
    • Potato – 1 medium (peeled & thinly sliced cubes)
    • Red Bell Pepper – 1 (sliced)
    • Coriander Powder – 2 tsp
    • Red Chili Powder – ½ tsp
    • salt to taste
    • Fresh Cilantro – for garnish

    DIRECTIONS: 1. Start by chopping the green chilies and garlic. banana 148 2. Slice the brinjals.  banana 151 3. Heat a pan on medium heat, once hot add oil, cumin seeds, and nigella seeds. banana 153 4. Once the cumin seeds sizzle, add the brinjals. banana 154 5. Add salt and turmeric powder. banana 155 6. Stir and cook for about 5 minutes. banana 156 7. In the meantime, peel a potato.  Cut into thinly sliced cubes. banana 159 8. Add the potato to the brinjals.  Add salt and combine.  Allow this to cook for a few minutes. banana 160 9. In the meantime, slice the red bell pepper. banana 162 10. Add the bell pepper to the brinjals and potatoes along with salt, coriander powder, and red chili powder.  banana 163 11. Combine and allow this to cook for 5 minutes. banana 165 12. Notice the potatoes and brinjals may start to brown.  banana 166 13. Cover with a lid and lower the heat to low-medium heat (dial #3).  Cook this for 25-30 minutes, the steam will soften all three vegetables. banana 092 14. This is what you should have.  Make sure the potato and eggplant are fork tender and then you are done. banana 193 15. Garnish with fresh cilantro.  banana 194
