Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Chana (Chole, Chholay) masala

    • Dcampos on February 09, 2020

      Lots of ingredients but worth the effort.

  • Chickpea poppers

    • Ganga108 on May 10, 2025

      Yum yum. A great snack on a Saturday afternoon. Quite addictive.

    • Ganga108 on May 10, 2025

      She has added this to her online recipe - it is a simpler version to the popper sala (chana chaat) in the same book: "Make an easy chaat with these poppers. With one cup of cooked chickpeas, add chopped onion, tomato, cilantro, lemon juice and a pinch of kala namak. Top it off with tamarind chutney. Serve it all on individual lettuce leaves for a fun variation on a salad." Also, a commenter says "Also try soaking overnight and sprouting for 10-12 hours and do the baking part and skip the cook part!"

  • Mom's mung sprout salad

    • nicolepellegrini on August 11, 2018

      Crisp, unusual, and refreshing. Like a distant cousin of a potato salad. I don't like cucumbers so I substituted radishes, and cut back a bit on the cayenne and chiles so it wasn't too spicy. Would make again.

  • String beans with toasted chana dal

    • nicolepellegrini on June 08, 2020

      A nice string bean side dish. I liked the toasty/nutty touch added by the chana dal.

Publishers Text

This beautiful follow-up to Anupy Singla's widely praised first cookbook, The Indian Slow Cooker, is a unique guide to preparing favorite recipes from the Indian tradition using entirely vegan ingredients. Featuring more than 50 recipes, and illustrated with color photography throughout, these great recipes are all prepared in healthful versions that use vegan alternatives to rich cream, butter, and meat. The result is a terrific addition to the culinary resources of any cook interested in either vegan or Indian cuisine.

Singla--a mother of two, Indian emigre, and former TV news journalist--has a distinctive style and voice that brings alive her passion for easy, authentic Indian food. Some of these recipes were developed by her mother through the years, but many Singla developed herself, including fusion recipes that pull together diverse traditions from across the Indian subcontinent. She shows the busy, harried family that cooking healthy is simple and that cooking Indian is just a matter of understanding a few key spices.

As Singla sees it, acquiring and using the proper spices is the key to preparing her healthful recipes at home. Singla has recently brought to market her own line of traditional Indian spice trays (also known as a masala dabba), which is being sold by retail outlets like Williams-Sonoma. Vegan Indian Cooking builds off of Singla's vast expertise in simplifying and perfecting Indian spices and unique, custom spice blends, making delicious Indian cooking accessible to even the most hurried home chef.
