We all know how important it is to include fresh vegetables and fruits in our diet. These vegetable recipes help us get the vital nutrients for maintaining good health.

Eating lots of vegetables and fruits reduces the risk of many diseases such as cancer, diabetes, heart disease, and high blood pressure. Vegetables are naturally low in fat and calories, and have no cholesterol, and as such are ideal for weight-loss diets.

Make your meals more healthy and nutritious with these delicious and easy Indian and fusion vegetable recipes. You will find health benefits and nutrient information for various vegetables on the main vegetable pages such as Sweet Potato Recipes, Eggplant Recipes, Okra Recipes, and so on.

Fresh vegetables work best for Indian cooking. Frozen or canned vegetables don’t retain the texture and freshness that contribute to the taste of Indian dishes. The exception are beans and peas. When using frozen or canned peas, add them towards the end of your cooking, to avoid overcooking.
