It All Starts Here

With this first post, I would like to cover a few basic things about what is to come. We will try to re-create as many dishes as possible through varied cuisines and cultures with vegetarian ingredients.
This is not a place where I promise healthy cooking or no cal, no carb dishes. We'll try to make them just as flavorful and delicious as the original recipe without no meat. Everyday, or every so often, I shall try to post one new dish that I think is unique and a must-have. The most important thing about this blog is that THIS IS NOT A RECIPE BLOG. It is a whole new experience. My experience, that I would like to share with the world.
To make all of this happen, I am often going to use certain specific ingredients as meat substitutes. When it comes to vegetables; mushrooms, eggplant and potatoes in my opinion are best suited to substitute meat in most recipes. Other meat substitutes you might often come across in my recipes are tofu, beans (garbanzo or chick peas, black, kidney) and paneer.
I am of Indian origin. So, you are going to notice quite a bit of that ethnic influence in a lot of my dishes regardless of the cuisine.
I believe in making amazing, delicious food. But, that doesn't mean we need to slog ourselves out. So, I shall use quite a bit of store-bought ready to use ingredients in my posts, wherever it is ok. This is to make it easy and accessible for anyone to recreate any of these dishes.
Please feel free to make requests for any dishes you might have come across and if you were wondering how you would make them vegetarian.
This blog is for all you food lovers out there. This is going to be a BLAST!! :)
