My apologies. The following food is not very photogenic. Usually I wouldn’t post these. But I already feel guilty enough about my infrequent updates so I decided to go ahead and share these for one very good reason: the food was delicious.
First up, spinach chickpea curry from Vegan with a Vengeance. I used frozen spinach for this dish, as that was what I had on hand. The spice combo was a bit bland for my tastes, so I jazzed it up by adding a pinch of this and a dash of that until it seemed right. Yum. I was eating this for 3 days afterward, but no complaints here.
To go with this delicious curry I made bharta from Madhur Jaffrey’s World Vegetarian. This was pretty good, although labour-intensive. I’m not sure if I would make it again for that reason. I had this served warm, but Madhur Jaffrey says you can eat it room temperature or chilled. I think it would be great as a chilled spread in a pita or something like that.
I didn’t serve these with rice. I just ate them “as is.” So there you have it, an Indian feast that’s Eat to Live compatible.
