6 Elegant Ways to Serve Vegetables

Fresh vegetables

The delicate flavour of some vegetables deserves to be showcased with very simple, elegant preparation. Here we present a few delicious ways to serve some of them:

Steamed Asparagus: Chop off the tough white part of the stalk and gently peel the rest of the stalk. Steam until just done — it becomes a bright green when done. Drizzle with a simple dressing made from melted ghee, lemon juice, salt, and freshly-ground black pepper.


Grilled Fennel bulbs: These taste delicious grilled. Cut each bulb in half, steam until partially cooked and finish them on the grill. Sprinkle a little Organic Pitta Churna on the grilled bulbs and toss lightly. Serve warm.


Stir-fried Courgette: Peel and grate. Heat ghee in a pan, toss in a few cumin seeds, and when the aroma is released, add the zucchini and sautΓ© on medium-high heat for about 5 minutes. Season, sprinkle a little lemon juice and toss lightly. Garnish with finely-chopped cilantro.


SautΓ©ed Lettuce: Yes, lettuce tastes wonderful lightly cooked! Shred the lettuce finely. Heat butter, or ghee, in a pan. When hot, add the lettuce and toss. Cover and cook for 5 minutes. Season with salt and freshly-ground black pepper, add a little lemon juice if desired and toss well. Garnish with minced parsley.


Braised Sweet Corn: Scrape the corn off the cob with a sharp knife. Heat some ghee in a pan and add a pinch of asafoetida. When the aroma is released, add some brown mustard seeds. When they start popping, add the sweet corn. Add 3-4 tablespoons of water and cook, covered, for 5 minutes. Season and garnish with chopped cilantro and fresh grated coconut.


Baked Celeriac: Peel and cut into slices. Brush with a little ghee and bake until tender, turning over once. Season to taste.—

Spring is ruled by the kapha dosha , whose qualities are heavy, cool, soft, dense, stable, solid, and cloudy. To adjust for the season , consider the following practices: Wake with the sunrise . One of the best practices to minimize the heavy quality of kapha in the mind and body is to wake with the sun (around 5:30 am this time of year).
