    I really love Indian vegetarian recipes because they are high in protein, very easy on the hip pocket and flavoursome. The Indian culture is also a massive veteran at vegetarian cuisine because of its thousand plus years of evolution, so the depth of flavour really shines. There's also a big use of pulses and dairy such as yoghurt (avoid the cream ones), which if you leave out ghee, is very healthy!

    Some of my favourites are:

    - Spinach Dhal (Spinach lentil thick soup)
    - Paneer Palak (Cottage cheese cubes with spinach)
    - Vegetable Sambar (Vegetable thick soup)
    - Tomato Rasam (Spicy thin vegetable soup - great for digestion and good for winters)
    - Tomatar Ki Chutney (Spiced Tomato Chutney - a delicious side with rice)
    - Eggplant & Mushroom Curry
    - Vegetable koftas in yoghurt curry


    You can find the videos and the recipes on showmethecurry.com. The authors healthify Indian food and they had a massive selection of curries which keep very well in the fridge and are great even when frozen.

    A favourite other dish of other Asian cuisines are:

    -Mapo Tofu (replace the minced meat with any soy protein of choice, preserved mustard green bits or chickpeas)
    -Stuffed cabbage rolls with 'cauliflower rice'
    -Stuffed vegetables with 'cauliflower rice'
    - Cauliflower fried rice allrecipes.com/recipe/cauliflower-fried-rice/

    Oh my! Thank you love!

    If you need to cook affordable meals, you'll find lots of helpful tips here agirlcalledjack.com/ . She isn't vegetarian but most of her meals are (and you can filter by vegan recipes). I love her carrot cumin and kidney bean burgers! Good luck!
