Muchos food porn....
For you to drool over! Here are some chapattis, above, which I made to serve with a coconutty korma, below, with tofu, brocolli, onions, bell peppers and flaked almonds, served on a bed of quinoa.
Who needs eggs or cheese when you can make a scrummy brocolli quiche like the one below, using tofu and nutritional yeast?
Here it is again, served up with a baby new potatoes and spring onions in Plamil egg-free mayonnaise. And the recipe-
Crust
120g wholemeal flour
50g margarine
pinch of salt
cold water
-rub margarine into flour with your fingers
-add salt, and a little water at a time, gradually adding till it forms a dough
-roll out dough and line oiled quiche dish
-bake in 220 C oven for 15 mins then set aside to cool
Filling
250g vegetables of your choice(broccoli, mushrooms, tomato, onion or bell peppers all work well)
4 tbsp olive oil
4 cloves garlic, crushed
250g tofu
4tbsp unsweetened soya milk
3 tbsp soy sauce
2 tsp chives
pinch of basil and oregano
3tbsp nutrional yeast (optional)
-put tofu in blender with soya milk, soy sauce herbs, and nutritional yeast if using and whizz
-fry vegetables in olive oil and garlic for 5 mins, then place in dish or crust(if using) with blended tofu mixture
-sprinkle nutritional yeast over quiche if using
-bake in 220C oven for 25 mins

Loads of crunchy choc chunk cookies- these didn't last long though!

Welcome to my kitchen!
Hello and welcome to my new blog. This is going to be a food blog, with food porn aplenty, recipes, and cookbook and product reviews, plus whatever else I might feel inclined to write about.
And of course, being a cruelty-free kitchen, everything is 100% vegan. :)
