Vegetarian recipes
Vegetarian South Asian and Gulf home cooking: daal, sabzi, paneer, chana and rice dishes with step-by-step instructions and timers.
Every dish here is meat-free, but it is not necessarily vegan: ghee, milk, yogurt and paneer turn up often, so check the ingredient list if you avoid dairy. Pick by what is already in your pantry, and use the minutes on each card to match the dish to the evening you have.
This collection has 148 dishes, including Chana Daal, Aloo Paratha, Gajar Halwa. A typical recipe takes about 45 minutes, and each one comes with step-by-step instructions and cooking timers.
