I had fun shopping for some of these ingredients at an Indian grocery store this morning. I've cooked Indian style before, but have not made this particular potato dish nor the eggplant. Hope they turn out well. It's my contribution to going veg with apretty.

omg! show-off! (tho, you do make a mean kheera raita!)

Garlic salt
Lots of black pepper
3 tablespoons of citrus soy sauce
1 cup of Trader Joe's low sodium veggie broth
1 cup of the frozen, precooked shrimps from costco

Saute onions first, carmelizing them. Then add the cabbage and let it wilt down a bit then add the broth, seasonings and shrimp. I didn't cook it too long, because I like it a little crisp.

This was really good, but Kat won't eat it. So, there's plenty left for tomorrow's lunch too.

I had to read this recipe three times because the first two times, I SWORE you said to cone the cabbage. I was actually trying to imagine the procedure for that.

Still waiting for you to attempt.

I rarely make the same stew twice simply because I never have the same ingredients. LOL I have a head of cabbage that needs to be used so here is what I'm doing with it.

Arwen's Mock Irish Dinner

• 1 lb stew meat, thawed
• 1 can Ro-Tel Original Recipe Tomatoes and Green Chiles
• 1/2 can red wine ( I used a merlot today)
• 1 can of water
• 1 pckg Beefy Onion Soup (dissolved in the can of water)
• 1 TBS lemon juice
• 1 tsp black pepper

While meat is thawing, combine other ingredients in crockpot on low. Add meat and cover. Cook for 4-6 hours. At 45 minutes before I want to eat, I'm going to quarter the cabbage and add the wedges. If I really wanted this to be Irish stew, I'd go to the store and get potatoes.

Yeah. That's so not happening.

NOTE In an effort to cut down on dishes used and therefore water to wash them, I use the can from the tomatoes as my measuring tool. So a 1/2 can of wine means pour the wine in the can.
