Reducing your carb intake is not difficult. Simply swap out your diet's sweets and carbs with veggies, meat, fish, eggs, nuts, and fats. It seems quite simple, until you don't eat meat. Because they strongly emphasize meat, conventional low-carb diets are inappropriate for vegetarians.
Ingredients
Method
STEP 1
Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Toss the aubergines in a roasting tin with 2 tbsp olive oil, season well and spread out. Roast for 20 mins or until dark golden and soft.
STEP 2
Heat the remaining oil in an ovenproof pan or flameproof casserole dish and cook the onions over a medium heat for 5-6 mins until softening. Stir in the garlic and spices, for a few mins until the spices release their aromas.
STEP 3
Tip in the tomatoes, coconut milk and roasted aubergines, and bring to a gentle simmer. Simmer for 20-25 mins, removing the lid for the final 5 mins to thicken the sauce. Add a little seasoning if you like, and a pinch of sugar if it needs it. Stir through most of the coriander. Serve over rice or with chapatis, scattering with the remaining coriander.

Vegetarians can be classified into many categories. They don't consume any fish or meat.
Vegans and lacto-ovo vegetarians are the two most prevalent varieties.
Vegans abstain from all meals derived from animals, while lacto-ovo vegetarians, sometimes known as "vegetarians," consume dairy products and eggs.
Without additional sugar, eggs and dairy products are high in fat and protein and low in carbohydrates. They are ideal for a low-carb diet for vegetarians (not vegans).
Additionally, these foods are high in vitamin B12, which is not present in plant-based diets. Vegans must supplement their B12 intake, whereas vegetarians can obtain all the vitamin from these sources.
In fact, there is a huge range of plant-based low-carb foods available.
Many of these foods are also high in protein and fat.
