Curried Sauteed Mix Vegetables is staple dish in my home towards the end of week when we are due to shop for fresh veggies and there are one or two pieces of every veggies lying in our refrigerator. You know what I mean, like remaining 2 tomatoes or a 1/2 cup of cherry tomatoes, one bell pepper or a small piece of Tofu, may be some Okra and sweet peas in freezer or some leftovers vegetables like bell pepper, eggplant from last night grilling. I add some fresh garlic, few grapes for fresh sweetness and curry powder for spice kick and turn these leftover veggies into an excellent side dish, easy to make, if you are using grilled veggies from other night cookout, you will just need 10 minutes to pull this dish together.

You can serve curried mix vegetables as a side with grilled meats. Or try mixing in some leftover rice into the veggies to turn it into a weeknight meal. In my home, I often serve it as main dish with side of wheat bread.
Savita's Notes:
You can serve curried mix vegetables as a side with grilled meats. Or try mixing in some leftover rice into the veggies to turn it into a weeknight meal. This dish stays good in refrigerator for 3-4 days, you can make it in advance and serve as side as many times as you like. Healthy way to feed your kids loads of veggies and easy to clean up leftover one or two veggie items in the fridge.© Chef De Home. Post content including video and photos are copyright protected.
