Vegetables

Eggplant has few calories, can be diuretic and keeps you satiated for long because of the fibre it contains. The minerals that it contains like calcium and magnesium, vitamins like A, B, C and E strengthen our immune system and are anti-inflammatory. Adding salt to the eggplant slices before cooking, removes the bitter stuff and water, which makes it taste milder after roasting or grilling. They should look fresh and luscious when buying. Overripe eggplants can be identified by its yellow-brown colour.
