Tips
Exchange your vegetables based on favorites and your allergies. make sure you have a mix of hard and mushy- it’s supposed to be soft or hard. however you like it.
This is an excellent Indian flavored dish which goes well with any protein. I often serve with Moroccan lamb shoulder or with chicken kebabs and rice as part of an Indian inspired meal.
