This delicious one pot dish has loads of protein and some yummy veggies. You might know, that I really love aubergines and tomatoes too, so I decided to make a mix with these. It is actually something I tried at a cafe long ago, and I liked it so much. So I decided to make something like that – on my own, and you now what? The dish came out very well! 😉
I actually madk a large amount of it, so that I also can have it some for my colleague W and I, for the lunch at work too 🙂
This dish serves about 4 small or 3 large servings.
Ingredients:
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 whole garlic, finely chopped

- 3-4 teaspoons of red chili powder (you can add smaller amounts too)

Directions:
