I dislike my fridge being loaded with tit-bits of this and that and when I do often find them mortifying in some corner of the fridge it brings agony to my face. You see, I cook food sufficient to be consumed and finished in maximum of two meals. I dislike eating the same the third time. This leaves me with more work, more of chopping, cooking and cleaning, but at the end the meal is more satisfying. Atleast, I know I enjoy every bit and bite of it :) Considering that I do often have leftovers of many raw vegetables in my fridge often. My best way to use common vegetables like carrot, beans, capsicum, peas, etc is by pairing them with sweet corn cobs. They couple very well with these veggies and add subtle sweetness to this dish. And to go a bit off track with the regular garnish of coriander leaves, I opted for dill leaves which doubly enhanced the flavors.
Wasn't that simple and an easy!
