Vegan Indian Food is a cookbook that gives flavourful plant-based alternatives to 86 well-loved and diverse Indian recipes, including breads, curries, rice dishes and desserts.

The book draws upon Regini's experience of wanting to make some of her favourite dishes vegan-friendly, as well as the long history of vegan cooking in India. The recipes use traditional cooking methods and skills to allow you to make vegan versions of dishes such as samosas, pakoras, biryanis, rotis and more.

Beautiful photography accompanies the dishes, along with helpful tips on how to master techniques and the author's reflections on food's connection to memory, place and family.

Vegan Indian Food is a cookbook that gives flavourful plant-based alternatives to over 80 well-loved and diverse Indian recipes, including breads, curries, rice dishes and desserts. Ragini Dey was born in the city of Mirzapur, Northern India. Her family travelled extensively through India experiencing food from many different regions and experimenting with different recipes. Ragini graduated in political science in Delhi before moving to Mumbai to work in a catering school. She emigrated to Australia after her husband accepted a job with the Hilton Hotel in Adelaide. After several years teaching and cooking Indian food for establishments such as South Australia's Government House and dignitaries including Donald Bradman, she eventually opened Indian restaurant The Spice Kitchen. It was such a success that it expanded to include Indian cooking and spice-appreciation classes and became renowned for making everything from scratch, right down to the pickles, chutneys and spice mixes. Considered one of Adelaide's finest chefs, Ragini runs Ragi's New Deli spice shop and dining, and is in demand for cooking classes and catering.
