Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • ¼ cup chopped walnuts
  • ¼ cup fresh sage leaves
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium eggplant cubed
  • 2 large carrots cubed
  • salt to taste
  • ½ teaspoon nutmeg
  • ¼ cup dried cranberries

Instructions
 

  • In a large skillet, toast the walnuts over medium heat until golden and fragrant. Remove to a plate. In the same pan, fry the sage leaves for 4 minutes in the olive oil until slightly browned. Remove the leaves to a paper towel to drain.
  • To the same pan with the olive oil used in frying the sage, add the carrots with a sprinkle of salt. Cook for 5 minutes until the carrots are slightly softened, then add the eggplant with more salt and the nutmeg. Cook for 5-10 more minutes until the vegetables are cooked to your liking - still with a bit of crunch or completely soft.
  • Add the walnuts and cranberries to the pan. Stir to combine, and taste one of the veggies. Add more salt if you'd like. Serve topped with the crispy sage.

Notes

  • Add a heap of arugula, some parmesan, and cracked pepper to the top of this dish for an instant salad!
