I wouldnt really say this list refers to “refrigerator has no vegetables in it”.
Lol…the above list (other than bell pepper) is not considered “vegetables” by most Indians 🙂 They are staples that are ALWAYS in the fridge.
Hey girls:
We don’t eat eggs. So I substituted them with scrambled tofu and it turned out very good! One creative way of eating the “tofu bhurji” was as the filling of a quesadilla! Total yummness! (yep I’ve just invented a new word!)
thanks as always and keep up the marvelous job you are doing!
Wow Haruko! That’s a great idea to use tofu. Thanks, as always, for your continued support.
You can also use paneer as well. That works perfectly fine too.
