Ever** since his famous No Knead Bread, I have been in love with Mark Bittman. Needless to say I was so excited when S got me his ‘How to cook everything vegetarian’ a couple of years ago.

From an erstwhile eggplant hater to making so many dishes with eggplant is quite a progress for me. I think eggplant is quite an adult taste and the smoky taste of roasted eggplant, even more so. I hardly know anyone who liked eggplant as a kid. Both S and me LURVE anything to do with a char grilled
There are some blogs I follow because I know their tried and tested recipes will come to my rescue each time I’m facing a dilemma as to what to cook!
