Eggplant and Seitan Stew

Sweet Potato Stew

Okra and Tomatoes

Injera

mmm... injera again!

The sweet potato stew was a big hit -- cubed sweet potato with brown sugar, soy margarine, salt, cinnamon stick -- this will have to go on the Thanksgiving menu this year.

The okra pods we picked up at the farmer's market we just a little too big -- they get a little woody tasting when the get that way -- so I sliced them very thinly which helped, and let them cook down with tomatoes for a good hour or so.

The eggplant stew was adapted (with the seitan) from the Marcus Samuelsson cookbook "The Soul Of A New Cuisine" book as does the injera. All of the dishes work really well with the injera, no forks here ;)
