Description

"The first [cookbook] from which I want to cook absolutely everything."--Joanne Lee Molinaro, creator of The Korean Vegan and New York Times-bestselling author of The Korean Vegan Cookbook

100 stunningly photographed vegan recipes that celebrate fresh, healthful produce--and capture the indelible flavors of India

India is home to a vibrant tapestry of culinary traditions--and to more vegetarians than anywhere else in the world. It's also where Dr. Sheil Shukla learned to love traditional Gujarati fare, cooking alongside his adored ba (grandmother) over summers in Mumbai.

During his medical training, Dr. Shukla discovered the power of plant-based nutrition to prevent and manage chronic illness--and so began his mission to reinvent the classic vegetarian dishes of his heritage.

Plant-Based India presents over 100 completely vegan recipes for shak (spiced vegetable dishes), dal (legume stews), rotli (flatbreads), bhat (rice dishes), and more. From a comforting Palak Tofu that transcends dairy-based paneer, to vegan Nan, festive Navratan Rice, hearty Dal Makhani, and summery Chocolate Chai Mousse with Berries, these are recipes from the heart--filled with nourishing ingredients at their seasonal best.

"This book's vibrant photography and regional focus make this a standout, inviting cooks to covet strictly plant-centered Indian cuisine, refresh their spice cabinets, and fire up their stoves."--Booklist

"It's a lucky day indeed when I find a cookbook from which I want to make a bunch of recipes, but this is the first one from which I want to cook absolutely everything. There isn't a single recipe in this remarkable book that doesn't look mouthwatering, and Sheil's thoughtful, researched, and authoritative voice on food as nutrition is both refreshing and reassuring. You can cook these soul-full recipes with confidence for food that explodes with flavor and heart."--Joanne Lee Molinaro, creator of The Korean Vegan and New York Times-bestselling author of The Korean Vegan Cookbook

"Plant-Based India is a message of hope and health for everyone--that food can bring joy and love and help heal and prevent disease. We are reminded that eating healthy for the brain, body, and our planet is not about deprivation--on the contrary, it's incredibly delicious and brings joy.
