MMMMMMMMMM!
Yesterday, I made this tasty spiced oven roasted vegetables side dish. I had a few veggies in my fridge to use up. I also had some spices in my cupboard & thought these would be the perfect combo & I was right! I served this fragrant & tasty side dish with fried sweet potatoes & a Vegan Gluten-free soy veggie burger. Check it out! ๐

This is a fantastic easy roasted side dish!
Recipe: For 1 large oven dish, enough for 2 persons
Ingredients:
* For the veggie mix:
2 large confetti aubergines ( eggplants ), cleaned, cut into bigger rounds, each round cut up into 6 pieces,ย the big stalks are very prickly!!!! Watch out when you grab them!
2 medium young green courgettes ( zucchini ),ย cleaned, cut into bigger rounds & each round cut into 2
1/2 red paprika, cleaned, pits & white bits removed, cut into strips
1/2 orange paprika, cleaned, pits & white bits removed, cut into strips
1 can of chickpeas, rinsed & well-drained, chickpeas put onto a clean towel & with another clean towel put on top, try to dip dry the chickpeas so that they are dry to go into the oven & that you can get rid of the white husks around each chickpea
1 red onion, peeled & cut into smaller wedges
* For the spice mix:
2 teaspoons smoked sweet paprika, the dulce version
2 teaspoons garam masala
1 teaspoon + 1/2 teaspoon turmeric ( Curcuma )
1 teaspoon Maldon sea salt, crushed between your hands
8 grins of finely milled black pepper
5 to 6 tablespoons of a fruity extra virgin olive oil
Method:
1. Preheat your oven to 200ยฐ C ( 400 F ) ย for 10 minutes. I always use a fan oven. Adjust your oven to the right temperature.
2. In a large non-stick oven dish, place all of your veggies & chickpeas in it, evenly divided but the chickpeas can be under, besides & on top of the veggies. Place every spice over your veggie-chickpea mix, evenly scattered. Finally, pour your fruity evoo all over it & with clean hands, mingle everything together. Place into the hot oven & roast for about 30 to 35 minutes until fragrant, roasted & ready. After 15 minutes of roasting, turn the veggies over for an equal bake & not to burn the veggies! Lower the temperature, if you need to. My veggies were ready after 35 minutes of roasting. Wait for 5 minutes & then instantly serve them with whatever you want. This is so tasty with fried sweet potatoes & a Vegan GFsoy veggie burger! ๐ MMM!ย โฅย Stay Tuned & subscribe by email! Join 1,800 email subscribers now!!! It is free!!!!

I don’ t have a love button? Thanks, my friend! I had never toasted chickpeas before & it is so tasty & apart too! MMMM!
Yumm… My absolute favorite ๐
I do that often too…
Try the Indian kitchen king masala from MDH brand, if you can find one.. It is awesome too:)))..
Great side dish!
Thanks my friend! x
Also oven roasting chickpeas…. Wow… Very creative. Have to try that!
Yes, I thought: Why Not, but you must dry them on a clean towel + remove the outer white husks of each chickpea, to preventie burning & for an equal bake!
Okay, thanks:)

I recently posted Matar poha recipe.. It is peas and flattened rice.. might like it and it seems that you are efficient with Indian spices ๐
We call those aubergines “Chinese Eggplant” ๐ Looks great!
We call Chinese aubergines, the long smaller ones.
