Indian Snacky Lunch

Most Indian vegetarian snacks – vegetable samosas, onion bhajis and pakoras – are vegan. They make a delicious lunch, eaten cold on the go or warmed through and served with vegan yoghurt, salad and the like. They are widely available too, with most supermarkets selling mixed packs or individual items. Just read the labels, as ever. Just avoid those with dairy yoghurt dips!
