About

An unusual combination of textures and flavors, but—like the eggplant and apple mixture—one that really works. Serve in combination with other Indian dishes or as an unusual side dish with Western food.

Other vegetables you can prepare this way: for the eggplant, substitute cauliflower or thick slices of red or yellow bell pepper or a combination.
