A new computer and a recipe for Ali



For Ali at Mud Pie :-)

1/4 olive oil

1 medium eggplant cut into 2cm pieces

500g pumpkin cut into 2cm pieces

1 large brown onion finely chopped

1 x 420g can chickpeas

2tbs morroccan seasoning

250 ml water

80g spinach leaves

70g greek yoghurt

steamed rice to serve

(i also added potatoes - because we'd just dug them!)


Heat 2 tbsp oil add eggplant and cook for 3 min - transfer to bowl.

Heat remaining oil and add pumpkin and onion and potato, cook for 4 mins, add eggplant chickpeas and seasoning.

cook 5 minutes or until pumpkin and potato are tender

add spinach and cook until spinach wilts

Stir in yoghurt - serve on rice.


I got a new laptop! hoping this will make uploading photos and blogging easier. The poor old puter got a new sound card and has been on a bender ever since.


More to come :-) I've been very busy!

Ooo I am loved! This sounds a little fabulous, and I have eggplants that are just coming on now. I don't think my pumpkins will be ready for a while yet though :)

I will try this as soon as the eggplants are ready to be picked, I'm quite excited as I don't have a good vegetarian curry recipe.

Thanks Ally :)
