Savor the vegetarian cuisine of India
Indian cuisine features some of the most delicious and flavorful dishes on the planet, and vegetarians going on a tour of India are sure to find a diverse array of tasty meat-free things to eat.
India is one of the most vegetarian-friendly countries in the world, as the staples of the Indian diet don't rely on meat. Many of the nation's foods are based on rice, a form of millet known as bajri, whole wheat flour and the pulse, a common legume.
These vegetable and grain bases are combined with a range of spices to create amazing cuisine. Some of the most common spices used in Indian cooking are chilli pepper, black mustard seed, cumin, turmeric, fenugreek, ginger, coriander, cardamom and garlic. Many cooks use garam masala, a warm blend of multiple spices, to flavor their food.
One of the best ways to enjoy vegetarian cuisine in India is on a private tour. Private guides may be able to help tourists find the foods they most want to eat, while they can also alert vegan travelers to any dishes that may include dairy.
