Baingan Sabji
Braised eggplant with spices and ginger
The eggplants in this recipe are silky, and the spices are mild but flavourful. When I had just given birth to my son, I was given a special diet by my mother.

Warm saffron and spice tea
This sweet, fragrant drink is poured out of a samovar, a traditional copper tea pot that has an inbuilt section for hot coal to keep the tea warm.
