While its health and environment benefits are talked about enough, many are deterred by the perception of vegan recipes being complicated and the seeming challenges of procuring the ingredients required. But with The Indian Vegan, your approach to and understanding of veganism is all set to change. Sonal Ved has researched the length and breadth of Indian cuisine for years, only to conclude that when it comes to a vegan lifestyle, no other culinary tradition is as well-suited as the Indian one. From Ladakhi chutagi, Kerala's ulli theeyal and Manipuri kelli chana to Rajasthani moong dal khilma, Bengal's mocha'r ghonto, Garhwali kafuli and more, she presents recipes that open the doors to the diverse world of the country's regional cuisine and fit neatly into daily life.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49753256001809,"sku":"NGR9789356998278","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9356998272.jpg?v=1750774736"},{"product_id":"tiffin-book-sonal-ved-9780316415767","title":"Tiffin","description":"There are more varieties of cooking in India than in the rest of the entire world, yet American cookbooks tend to focus only on what's familiar here. Tiffin encompasses recipes from across the continent, where flavors vary from coconut and tamarind to curry and masala and everything in between. In the West, the cuisine is influenced by Portuguese flavors and the sea, with rich crab curries. In the North, meat dishes, such as tandori chicken and mutton stew, warm the body on a cold Himalayan night. Delhi is known for street delicacies such as flat breads and kababs. And throughout the country are Persian, Thai, and British influences as well.  A tiffin is a traditional Indian lunch pail that holds homemade curries, vegetables, rice, and spicy meats. Our expansive cookbook open it up to show the diverse flavors from all of the regions of India, from spicy fish curries to rich dumplings to spring rolls to butter chicken. The 500 recipes are organized by region and then into subcategories of meats, seafood, vegetarian, and desserts.   With vibrant illustrations that represent the regional style and mouth-watering photography of the dishes, Indian cooking has never been more accessible or well-respresented.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49761935458577,"sku":"CIN0316415766G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50467614130449,"sku":"GOR009721581","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51471095496977,"sku":"NGR9780316415767","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51804049113361,"sku":"CIN0316415766VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51832118247697,"sku":"NIN9780316415767","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0316415766.jpg?v=1751433740"},{"product_id":"india-local-book-sonal-ved-9789392130427","title":"India Local","description":"India Local is a cross-country culinary adventure complemented by mouth-watering photographs – an invaluable source for chefs and home cooks who wish to recreate the flavours Indian streets in their own kitchens.
