I love Indian cuisine! Have I mentioned this on my blog before? I think not just once.
The smell when cooking is simply indescribably great!
Indian dishes are great vegan
What's more, Indian cuisine is so incredibly easy to make vegan. The coconut milk that is often used provides a creamy, flavourful base and, combined with vegetables, rice and all the spices, regularly creates a wonderful explosion of flavour in the mouth.
