Vegan Indian Recipes

Indian cuisine is fantastic for a plant-based diet since it has a rich tradition of meat-free cookery. As of 2006, 40% of the country was vegetarian! Being a large country with such a long history, India has huge diversity in its foods (see this map to get an idea of the major regional cuisines). One thing they have in common for sure is that they are all delicious and flavourful.
