    I've been eating a lot of it lately.  I needed to add some vegetables to my diet.  I was sorely lacking.

    Yes.  I am a vegetarian.  It's just that I have been eating everything BUT vegetables.  Lots of fruit and that stuff, but I needed to bulk up on salads again.

    I eat a lot of different veggies when I get going.  Especially love tomatoes.  I eat those daily.   I am trying to incorporate a lot of dark green veggies in my food.

    I remember some Indian ladies cooking up some delicious fried broccoli that was dynamite.

    I'm sure you make it too.  It has a breading on it.  I loved it.  I want some.

    It was too long ago now for me to remember accurately.

    It looked like these dishes. 

    They are all different dishes so I see why you cannot help me.  LOL there are hundreds of possibilities.

    The last one is deep fried in chick pea flour, so that's out of question;))
    The second one seems right, I think I can teach you that, hope you have ingredients like chili powder, turmeric and coriander powder at home. We could proceed then;))

    That sounds right but I could totally do the third one.

    I am a cook.

    Umm Sharonna, I've no doubt about your cooking capability, but the third one, it is a fried food dish, and I thought that won't serve your purpose of getting a good veggie intake!

    Ha ha Harry, they will push me out of the mug...;)) I'll surely mail it to you in detail, it is similiar to raw plantain fritters, in fact it can be done with eggplant and potato slices too;))
    whisk together 2 cups of chick pea flour, a tea spoon of chili powder, salt according to taste and a teaspoon of hot butter, add minced garlic,whisk everything well and dip your favorite veggie ( even cauliflower like broccoli) into the batter and put in oil for deep frying. It is important to mix the batter well, not too thin, not too thick...;))

    LOL!  I was actually interested in the healthier one, the second one!  Looks good!

    Had to hang my head out of the window in order not to drool all over the laptop. No complaints from me, though (some complaints from the usual pedestrians).

    I'm still frequently around here--just not too actively so, trying to focus mostly on writing. Hope you're well!
