Here we present Vegetable Makhanwala with a few Jain-friendly twists. We have done away with root veggies and used cabbage instead of onions.
The result is a recipe that is as good as the original but absolutely acceptable for Jains. Enjoy this yummy vegetable preparation with phulkas , rotis or naan
You can also try other Jain recipes like the Jain Pav Bhaji and the French Beans Foogath .

Looks delicious but carrot is a root vegetable is it not? So aren?t carrots not JAIN friendly?
