Yesterday was a pretty bleak and miserable day of cold and windy weather – so I knew I wanted something warm and filling in the evening. I made this in about 20 minutes and it ticked all the boxes. Full of flavour, filling and easy. So for a quick but hearty stew for the winter…

RECIPE: TOFU STIR FRY RICE
The other day I went to Wagamama’s and was very inspired by their Yasai Cha Han rice dish – unfortunately it has egg in (although it might be vegan without the egg, will check). Anyway I was suddenly craving a really lovely big bowl of sticky rice with lots of veg and soy sauce –…
RECIPE: Vegan Crepes
Okay so I know that pancake day has just passed – but I really wasn’t sure I’d be able to make good vegan pancakes, so I wasn’t too excited about it. Turns out – vegan pancakes are one of the easiest things you could possibly make and now I just want to have pancakes all…
RECIPE: Sweet Potato Lemon-Herb Quinoa
I’ve really got into quinoa lately as I’ve finally realised how to cook it well, so it comes out all fluffy and delicious. Quinoa is a fantastic protein source and it’s particularly good as part of a weight-loss plan because it is actually a legume not a carbohydrate, so makes you feel fuller for longer….
RECIPE: QUICK, EASY FALAFELS!!
Falafel – together with houmous and kale it makes up the holy trinity of vegan foodstuffs. I LOVE falafels so much but I have never really got down to making them, which is silly because they’re actually super easy – you can just chuck everything into the blender. I used to think they were really…
RECIPE: White Chocolate Oat Peanut Butter Cups
Have you ever craved something so sweet so badly but had no real dessert or sweet ingredients in your cupboard? That was totally me yesterday evening, I realised I had a bar of vegan white chocolate and in desperation created these white chocolate oat things from what I had and I have to say they…
RECIPE: VEGAN KORMA
I love korma so much – even though I love a lot of Indian food, I always come back to the classic that is that creamy, full of flavour korma. Until now I have never been able to make a really thick and creamy korma sauce, but the revelation that is cashew cream has allowed…
RECIPE: Perfect Boiled Rice
For years I felt that producing lovely separate, fluffy grains of rice was an enigma that could never be solved. But for the last couple of years I have perfected a recipe that consistently delivers beautiful separate grains of rice and can also be applied to a lot of other grains! All you need is…
RECIPE: Perfect Porridge
After an early run this morning I wanted something filling and warming following the cold outdoors – this porridge does the trick every time! I often find that cereal or toast never fills me up for long, even if I pile on fruit and nuts my stomach is rumbling soon after 11am. Never with porridge…
RECIPE: SWEET POTATO AND CHICKPEA CURRY
As winter finally really seems to be setting in and I’m currently wearing three jumpers, I thought it was time to make a lovely warming curry. This blend of sweet potato and indulgent coconut cream comes out a dream for a dreary day. Enjoy!
