3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon curry powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 eggplant, cubed
3 jalapeno peppers, seeded and minced
4 Yukon Gold potatoes, cubed
3 tomatoes, diced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

In a Dutch oven or large pot over medium heat, heat oil with curry powder and cumin until aromatic. Stir in eggplant, jalapenos, potatoes, tomatoes, salt, chili powder and turmeric. Cover and cook 30 to 45 minutes, adding water if necessary to maintain a stew-like consistency.

sprinkle with cilantro when you're ready to grub out.

3 tablespoons canola oil
2 teaspoons minced garlic
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger root
1 lime
1 tablespoon tamari, or to taste
2 pounds firm tofu

Heat oil in a wok or skillet over medium heat. Stir in garlic and ginger, and cook for 1 minute. Add tofu to the pan with tamari, and stir to coat. Cover, and continue cooking for 20 to 30 minutes.
Lime it down when you're done

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 onions, minced
1 1/2 cups uncooked white rice
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons dried currants
2 tablespoons pine nuts
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon dried mint
1 tablespoon dried dill weed
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 (8 ounce) jar grape leaves, drained and rinsed

Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Saute onions until tender. Stir in rice and hot water to cover. Cover and simmer until rice is half cooked, about 10 minutes.

Remove from heat and stir in tomato paste, currants, pine nuts, cinnamon, mint leaves, dill weed, allspice and cumin. Let mixture cool.

Prepare a large pot by placing an inverted plate on the bottom; this protects the dolmas from direct heat when steaming.

Rinse grape leaves in warm water; drain and cut off any stems. Place about 1 teaspoon of the cooled rice mixture in the center of a leaf. Fold in the sides and then roll into a cigar shape. Place in prepared pot. Repeat with remaining ingredients

Pour in just enough warm water to reach the bottom of the first layer of dolmas. Cover and simmer over low heat for 30 to 45 minutes, or until rice is totally cooked. Check the water level often and add more as necessary.
