A healthy, delicious and vegetarian dish, which you can enjoy and make easily. 
  1. In a pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat, then add the onion, garlic and ginger

I served this with brown rice to complete the healthy meal, and enjoyed it whilst hot...then took it to work and enjoyed it cold! Alhamdulilah :)
