CURRIED VEGETABLES
My mum, Nafisa, passed a version of this recipe to me when I first moved to the US more than twenty years ago. In those days, diets, and certainly, living with some- one following one so strictly, was an anomaly. Within a year of meeting Raman, he started using the SCD. I often joke with friends that we found each other and the diet-at the same time-all is still well on the partner and diet front many years on... - Nilou
