VEGAN FOOD

SUSTAINABLE LIVING

I’m Purvi Shah

Passionate about leading an eco-friendly lifestyle and encouraging others to do so, I turned vegan in 2014 and there has been no turning back. Experimenting with ingredients, innovating new vegan recipes, and capturing their mouth-watering pictures keep me going. A strong believer in minimalism, my love for sustainability goes beyond my food choices. I strongly advocate for animal-cruelty free fashion products and a conscious wardrobe.

A much needed detox after all the holi binge😛

A much needed detox after all the holi binge😛

Made this apple cider spritzer for the first time and it was a super hit!
Please please try it out.
Will totally change your mood 😍

🥃Heat some apple cider with maple syrup, add cinnamon, star anise and cloves. Do not boil it.
Just heat it on low heat for 3-4 minutes.
🥃Strain the spices and fill a glass with the mixture.
🥃Add ice and sparkling water.
Enjoy sip by sip ☺️

Sparkling water by - @zoikindia 😍

About the frame-
I wanted to try both lights for this setup.
First two pictures are back light and last picture is side light.
You can see the difference clearly 🤓

Backdrop from @amazondotin
I am so so happy I ordered these from Amazon, very reasonably priced and outstanding quality 😎

BEHIND THE SCENES ON REELS!

VEGAN Broken Wheat Porridge 🌾 Traditionally cal

VEGAN Broken Wheat Porridge 🌾 Traditionally called Laapsi 🤤

Recipe is up on reels!!

Swipe to the last picture for a closeup 🤩
-
Laapsi is a traditional dish of Rajasthan and Gujarat prepared with broken wheat often prepared for special occasions and rituals.

It is usually prepared with loads of Ghee and now we have vegan ghee to solve all our problems 😋

A very HAPPY HOLI guys 🌈
I usually never play holi but if you do then please be safe and be considerate to the kind creatures around you 🐶
The chemicals in those colours are really harmful to them.
Dogs tend to lick their bodies and if they consume that colour, it can cause a lot of distress.

Other than that have a fantastic day and eat lots of amazing food🤩

Vegan jaggery churma ladoo 🤤

They will truly melt in your mouth !!!
Now that I have vegan ghee I can literally veganise any traditional sweet dish which is the best😋

Please find the recipe on reels TOMORROW MORNING 😎

This post is precisely a guide to shoot ladoos 😂
I just couldn’t stop myself from shooting them from various angles because they looked adorable.
Also the best part, the setup was very very simple (the BTS will surprise you😄)

Incense sticks are a must in my traditional shoots because they add a beautiful drama to the entire picture and makes the shoot sooooo calm😄

As Holi is just around the corner, my idea of using colours was to use a multicoloured thread roll which helped me control the colours of the entire frame.

I dint want to worry about using actual colours because it could steal the entire attention from the ladoos.
I hope I am making sense 😋

Which is your favourite picture? ☺️

Vegan Crispy Coriander Fritters | Kothimbir Vadi ☘️

Basically kothimbir means coriander in Marathi.
Therefore as the name suggests, this snack is made out of coriander leaves and gram flour !

It is a very common and loved snack in Maharashtra and I LOVE these cute little vadi’s.
They are crispy and filllllled with flavour 🤤

Today I made the fried version but steamed ones are equally tasty.

The recipe is on my REELS right now😎

📸 About the frame:
I will not lie but kothimbir vadi’s are super tough to capture 😋 especially because of their flaky texture.
The main reason for me to make these today was to challenge myself 🙈
Soooo I did not want to go overboard with any prop as my only goal was to shot the texture of these vadi’s.
Whenever I am a little confused about setups I go easy with props and it always helps me.
One thing that was pre decided was to use a Paithani dupatta☺️

Paithani’s are just extremely beautiful, rich and luxurious.
They are an integral part of Maharashtrian culture and my mom is a huge fan!

Do check out recipe and behind the scenes on REELS!

One of my favourite summer breakfast - Chilled Man

One of my favourite summer breakfast - Chilled Mango Chia Pudding 🥭

It is creamy and perfect with a crunch of crushed nuts and a sprinkle of desiccated coconut 🌰

Kept it in the fridge for a few minutes and enjoyed it☺️

Highly recommend you to try this heavenly breakfast while mangoes are in season 🤓

Tried purple cabbage and green apple salad for the first time 🍏
It was super refreshing and fulfilling 😎

I saw this salad first on @veggie_intervention ‘s feed and was really tempted to make it🤭

More pictures coming soon🍏

I really wanted to go simple with the setup.
The colours are too beautiful to keep the frame busy.
I am quite obsessed with macro shots and I make it a point to click a few macros of whatever I cook ! You never know how gorgeous it could turn out😄
