    Nice bhaji!
    Thank you for stopping by my blog, it is nice to know that those who do eat soya products can get them easily in the larger French hypermarkets.
    Burgundy however is not well served for these. Outside of a few healthfood shops, you would have problems sourcing vegan spreads and other foods. We can indeed buy soya milk in our small supermarket but it is GM modified. Tofu can sometimes also be found in the chinese section.

    Thanks for the simple yet delicious recipe. Curry Powder and Olive oil is a strange combination for many Indians, but I think it is worth experimenting that.
