Slow roasted vegetables served with a tangy salad – the perfect start to Fall.
By Shuchi Mittal
I recently relocated to NYC, and although there are a few hundred things that come as a surprise, Fall is a welcome one. The color, the energy, the smells-all of it has been rather inviting and my hands were itching to use some of that and serve it on a plate.
Although this serves 2, I ate it all by myself. It has been a long trip from Asia.
