VEGETARIAN FOOD IN UZBEKISTAN

In large cities, there are a variety of restaurants and plenty of choice in the menu. With the development of tourism in Uzbekistan and a growing number of vegetarian tourists in recent years, the restaurants in cities are increasingly trying to meet the demand for it. Vegetarians could try manty with potatoes or pumpkin, lentil soup, plov cooked without meat, or combine side dishes like steamed or grilled vegetables with potatoes, rice or pasta and salads.  As a vegetarian, it is possible to travel through Uzbekistan, but make sure to tell your guide beforehand, so he/she can pre-order vegetarian meals for you.

If you would like to try discover more dishes and recipes – have a look at a relatively new book with beautiful illustrations and photos: Samarkand: Recipes & Stories from Central Asia & The Caucasus by Caroline Eden.
