Make delicious vegetarian and vegan Indian dishes from a range of just 10 spices.

Indian food offers a huge choice of naturally vegetarian and vegan dishes. In this new collection, Cyrus Todiwala serves up easy, full-flavoured recipes for everything from breakfast and brunch to simple suppers, from warming soups to veg-packed curries and daals.

With a spice box of just 10 favourites, you can whip up simple home-cooked dishes such as Spiced Aubergine and Tomato Frittata, Sweetcorn, Celery and Coconut Chowder with Almonds and Baked Tandoori-style Cauliflower with Couscous and Spinach & Garlic in no time at all.

Cyrus Todiwala shows you how to master vegetarian and vegan Indian recipes using just 10 spices - chilli, cumin, coriander, turmeric, cardamom, cloves, saffron, cinnamon, mace and mustard seeds. All of the recipes in the book draw only on these core spices, making Indian cookery achievable for everyone, without impossibly long ingredient lists.

Cyrus shares his trademark combinations of Indian techniques with more familiar western ingredients, and vice versa, with imaginative new takes on vegetarian and vegan recipes such as Courgette Koftas in Tomato Sauce, Masala Scrambled Eggs with Paneer, Quinoa and Mushroom Tadka and Baked Tandoori-style Caulifower.
