** If Italian seasonings not available you can simply skip it. 

** Prepare semi thick batter so that capsicum ring coat in batter well.

** Instead of bread crumbs you can also corn crumbs.

** Fry capsicum rings in low to medium flames without burning till it changes color. 

** You can also sprinkle some chaat masala on capsicum rings.

pan fried mediterranean veggies

Today's post is very very simple and easy pan fry Mediterranean veggies. I used broccoli, eggplant, carrot, baby potatoes, capsicum, onions. Some information regarding  mediterranean diet - it is a diet inspired by the eating habits of Italy and Greece in 1960's. The principal aspects of this diet includes proportionally high consumption of olive oil, fruits, vegetables, moderate to high consumption of fish, moderate consumption of dairy products. A traditional mediterranean diet consisting of large quantities of fresh fruits,vegetables, nuts, fish and olive oil coupled with physical activity which can reduce risk of serious mental and physical health problems (information from wiki).

As i d't have oven i pan fried these veggies, you can roast these veggies in oven to get crispy texture. The taste of this fry depends on olive oil, herbs and pepper powder we use. I used oregano, pepper powder and red chilli flakes. No need to fry it like our regular curries. Fry onion, broccoli, capscium, eggplant  first then fry potato and carrot as it take more time to cook. Taking this healthy pan fry mediterranean veggies recipe to Foodie Monday BlogHop fb groups #222MystiqueMediterranen theme.
