STIR FRIED BRINJALS WITH OKRA

MCO is now on Phase 4 and home-makers are cracking their heads as to what to cook for the families.  Some would have ran short of ideas on what to cook and for those who have been buying takeaway food would probably be tired of having to think of which food outlet to go, concerned about food hygiene and social distancing [the queue etc] and to sum the costs of living.

As such, to deal with the new normal, we have to consider making changes to our way of living and decide if it is high time we should do some cooking at home.  No worries, check out some simple recipes here [from my collection of recipes].  It may be of help to you if you are looking for easy, simple, quick cook and healthy recipes to prepare for your family and yourself.
It is a better and healthier option to prepare our own nutritious meals at home.
This stir fried vegetable dish is one of the many simple, healthy dishes from my collection.  If you love your vegetables to be crunchy, do not overcooked them.  Aromatic platter of vegetables is here for you.
