    That looks so good! I’m going to make this... did you eat it as is or over rice? I’ve started following Dr. Fuhrman Eat To Live. If I make this without the oil it’s a huge win! Thank you!

    @DHarney63 I ate it as is. You definitely can do it with a little water at a time in the pan as opposed to oil.

    Where did those calories come from? And only "two pinches of carrots?" It looks delicious, but I would have to alter it a bit to make the calories come from something other than oil.

    Both those points - ‘pinch of carrots’ and the calorie count which is by my rough reckoning made up of at least three-quarters by oil, are exactly what I thought when looking at this! Far, far too greasy to eat, for me personally!
