This autumnal dahl is both comforting and fresh thanks to the coconut and lime flavours through it. It’s mild in terms of heat level and fragrant with the toasted cumin stirred through at the end. It comes together with very little effort so is a perfect midweek meal and the leftovers can be freezed for lunches.
This pasta is so perfect for autumn and winter, and so tasty. Cooking the mushrooms in stock before browning gives such a depth of flavour and the lemon hit lightens things up and makes the most of the beginning citrus season.
This is fusion food, which I know, is not always a great idea. But crispy stir fried cauliflower flavoured with turmeric and garam masala in little roti bread or flour tortilla wraps… what’s not to like?!
Dumplings. I’m obsessed. There are numerous recipes on this blog for dumplings as I make them about once a month and love to try new fillings. This tofu one is a real winner, they’re flavoursome and have great texture. This is not the shortest recipe on the blog but it’s not hard to do and if you have an extra pair of hands helping you then it’s pretty quick!
This easy curry is so delicious and full of flavour, you won’t miss the meat at all. It includes the recipe for a simplified vegan massaman curry paste, but you could always buy one.
This is my favourite quick vegan ragu. By adding the new Thompson’s hemp seeds you get extra protein in each serve which is ideal if you’re going meat free. When I’ve made vegetarian or vegan ragu using eggplant before I’ve slow roasted the ingredients to try and amp up the flavour but it turns out there’s a very simple short cut. A short cut that doesn’t compromise on flavour, I promise.
Baked eggs is definitely one of my favourite brunch foods but it’s actually an excellent meal at any time of the day! This vegetarian version uses chickpeas to increase the protein and fibre and capsicum to balance the acid in the tomatoes. It’s simple to make and full of spices.
Sometimes breakfast is an all day meal. Sometimes pizza is an all day meal. Sometimes breakfast is pizza. Sometime my logical is impeccable. This pizza is loaded with flavour and vegetables and topped off with eggs and avocado for some extra protein and healthy fats to start the day. or end it, depending on how you feel about breakfast.
This is reminiscent in flavour of a khoa soi soup but like most things I make is lacking in the authentic elements, the flavour is great though, full of thai spices and turmeric!
This is so easy to make and such a friggin’ delight. The crispy tofu is soft inside and if you cut into it with a spoon and get some of the broth to slurp up with it it’s just the most delightful bite on the flavour and texture fronts.
