A veggie among a veggie, or more apt to say a "jain",
finds it often difficult to cook the luscious gravy vegetables,
as most of them include onions, garlic, potato, etc. which are taboo
to jain food. Having faced this problem with many people and relations
whom I have invited, it inspired me to come out with an effort to
cook their favourite sabzis, sans onions etc.
Popularity of jain food is quite obvious by the number
of restaurants the world over, having a section in their menu which
specifies the jain dishes available. This is mainly due the presence
of Indians in practically every country of the world, and their
innate liking to "eat out" and eat "select foods".
Jains are basically vegetarians with further taboos
on their food, which bars the intake of some veggies, esp. onions,
garlic, potato, and root vegetables. But the degree and strictness
to which it is followed, depends on individuals, and their family
eating habits. Many convenient substitutes are there to enable one
to make similar dishes, and therefore enjoy the goodness of the
recipes.
