'Khana Khazana' Masterchef Sanjeev Kapoor Introduces Vegan Recipes with SHARAN

With the demand for plant-based food options entering the mainstreams, top chefs from all over the world are adding plant-based recipes to their portfolio. Last year, British celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay released a special vegan menu in the London branches of his restaurants for Veganuary. Chef Jamie Oliver has also been adding vegan recipes to his website since 2014 and has talked about the benefits of a plant-based diet.

The world-renowned Indian celebrity chef Sanjeev Kapoor joined in the trend and partnered up with SHARAN, an Indian organization devoted to promoting healthy, sustainable, and compassionate food habits. The chef has been exploring healthy plant-based recipes and introducing them on his infamous YouTube channel Sanjeev Kapoor Khazana.

Sanjeev Kapoor’s contribution to plant-based food will help familiarize the Indian audience with plant-based alternatives for traditional meat and dairy for the sake of their health, as these recipes are all oil-free and sugar-free.

The vegan-friendly recipes on Sanjeev Kapoor Khazana include substitutes for basic Indian dairy products like vegan yoghurt from peanuts, almond milk, vegan chaas and even homemade tofu. Other recipes include snacks and meals like vegan chili cheese toast, vegan tofu omelette, vegan dal makhni and desserts like vegan chocolate ice cream and a plant-based version of the much loved kulfi and gujiya.

This is a significant feat for the Indian vegan community as Sanjeev Kapoor is a household name all over the country, and the chef adding vegan-friendly recipes on his widely watched series will spread awareness about a plant-based lifestyle to a larger Indian audience.
