Vegan Tastes of Rajasthan India!

It's been a long time coming and I've wanted to get my India photos uploaded so here they are, most without captions -- for the moment.  Mange! (OK, that's French, but I don't know how to say "eat" in Hindi.) ~Namaste.This was from one of our first lunches on the tour.  The cashew curry (at about 7:00 on the plate to the left) was amazing. I talked about how much I loved it the entire trip and on one of the last nights, I got to cook it (with some help of course), using ingredients from the local market.  There is a photo below of the pan while I am cooking the cashew curry...So delicious...

















Food from the Bishnoi village, an all vegetarian village.


This is the market where we haggled (only when appropriate considering how cheap everything was compared to the US) for the ingredients used during our night of cooking.

Thali

Gulab jamun - my favorite dessert.  I recall having thirds of this syrupy sweet little dish!  I couldn't help myself!
