Ancient Indian Food, The origins of non-spicy Indian vegetarian food can be traced back to ancient times, when vegetarianism was prevalent in Indian society. In Hinduism, one of the major religions in India, vegetarianism is a way of life deeply rooted in spiritual and ethical beliefs. Vegetarianism was also common among Buddhist and Jain communities in ancient India. The use of a variety of grains, pulses, and vegetables characterized ancient Indian cuisine. These ingredients were often combined with dairy products, such as ghee and paneer, to create flavorful and satisfying meals.

In the medieval period, India was ruled by the Mughal Empire, which brought new influences to Indian cuisine. Mughal rulers were known for their love of rich, creamy dishes, such as biryanis and kormas, often made with meat. However, vegetarian versions of these dishes also became popular, using paneer or vegetables as the main ingredient. During the British colonial period in India, European ingredients and cooking techniques were introduced, leading to a fusion of Indian and European cuisines. This fusion gave rise to dishes like the famous Anglo-Indian vegetable curry, which used Indian spices and vegetables but was adapted to British tastes.
