Vegetarian and Vegan Indian Food in Estepona: A Complete Guide

Indian cooking is a paradise for vegetarians and vegans. Here are the dishes to order in Estepona, and how to make them fully plant-based.

Indian cuisine has cooked without meat for centuries, so a vegetarian or vegan meal here is never an afterthought. At Sabor India Estepona a large part of the menu is meat-free. Vegetarian classics to order - Dal Makhani — black lentils simmered slowly until silky. - Palak Paneer — spinach with home-style cheese. - Chana Masala — chickpeas with tomato, ginger and cumin. - Bhindi Masala — okra with onion and dry spices. - Aloo Gobi — potato and cauliflower, gently spiced. - Vegetable Biryani — basmati layered with vegetables and whole spices. How to eat fully vegan Ask us to cook without ghee, cream or yoghurt; most gravies work beautifully with oil and coconut, and the flavour base of onion, tomato and spice does the heavy lifting. Choose plain rice, tandoori roti or chapati instead of naan, which contains dairy. Avoid paneer and raita, and use the note field on each dish when ordering online so the kitchen sees it clearly. Starters and sides that are already plant-based Vegetable pakora, onion bhaji, papadums with mango chutney and lime pickle, plain rice, lemon rice and a simple salad. Together they make a generous shared table for two or three people. Balancing the meal One lentil dish, one vegetable dish, one rice and one bread feeds two comfortably. Add a mild dish and a hot one so the table has contrast. Eat in on our terrace, collect, or have it delivered inside Estepona centre. Open daily 14:00–00:00 at Calle Miguel de María Luque 7.
