Day 2

For the 2nd Veganmofo day, I made this Gujarati Thali with dishes from my dear blogger buddies. First up is Trupti @ The Spice Who Loved Me’s Bharelu Ringan Shaak. Being a sucker for all eggplant dishes, I wanted to make this dish the minute I saw it on her blog. Stuffing Japanese eggplants instead of regular Indian ones was very interesting and the Japanese eggplant gives a slightly sweet taste to the spicy filling. Yum.. this is a keeper.

To go with the Gujarati “shaak” I made Gujarati dal, Osaman, from DK’s Chef in You. Loved the addition of chopped peanuts, it adds a totally new dimension to regular good ‘ol dal.

So I served my Gujarati meal with a side of rotis, steamed rice and mango pulp (this one’s for my DH). Loved it.
