The buttery taste and luscious mouth-feel of the gravy makes Vegetable Makhanwala an ever-popular favourite. It is an item that features on the menu of most restaurants and in wedding spreads as well – and has earned a good share of fame across the world.

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?
