My sister is 23 and has been a lacto ovo vegetarian for 9 years. The problem is that she doesn't like vegetables! She will eat potato curry and baked beans curry with rice or pasta every day. I try to offer her fresh fruits and maybe soya products or different vegetables, but she point blank refuses. Apparently they don't taste nice. She is a bit underweight,40kg and she smokes. I worry about her health but really don't know how I can incorporate these healthy vegetables into her diet in a tasty way that she will enjoy.

Vegetarian is a blanket term. It covers the 5 levels.
NO vegetarians eat meat. Fish and chicken are meat. Anyone who eats ANY meat, however picky they are, is an omnivore, not a vegetarian.
Lacto vegetarians - milk, no eggs.
Ovo vegetarians - eggs, no milk.
Lacto-ovo vegetarians - eggs and milk
Strict vegetarians - strictly plant based diet. Some call it a vegan DIET (which is NOT the same as being vegan) No animal products. No dairy, no eggs, no honey, nothing animal-derived.
Vegans - plant-based diet (as above). Vegan implies moral concern for animals and extends to lifestyles as well. We avoid animal products in our consumables such as shampoo, make up, cleaning products, and so on. No leather, wool, suede, silk, and so on, and we avoid animal testing, circuses, traditional zoos & aquariums, horse/dog racing, bullfighting, etc.
