Well not long ago, I made a Thai red curry paste, but I ran out so today I thought, why not go all out and try making a green one so I can have a Thai Green Curry Noodle Soup - makes sense! The base for the paste is pretty much the same with just… Continue reading Thai Green Curry Noodle Soup

Impossible Burger Attempt
Faux meat has seen a massive revelation in 2020, with brands such as Impossible and Beyond bringing out foods that taste pretty much like meat in terms of texture, flavour, appearance – the lot.

Sage and Onion Stuffing Balls
I never thought it was possible to have sage and onion stuffing balls without sausage meat, shoved up a turkey hole or drenched in meat juices. Well this year it became evident to me that sage and onion stuffing is actually able to perfectly function without animal input (well just my input but without me… Continue reading Sage and Onion Stuffing Balls
Seitan Meatballs
One thing I miss quite a bit since giving up meat are meatballs. Not that I ate them often, but it’s just so difficult to form meaty balls that stick together and remain intact after cooking, that I miss the ease of making a savoury ball smothered in tangy tomato sauce. Though today was a… Continue reading Seitan Meatballs

Just Vermicelli (vegan | gluten-free)
Sometimes, a cold snack just doesn’t do it for me. When I’m peckish, there are times where I simply just want a snack that’s hot- in England, that’s pretty fitting for the weather 364 days of the year. I don’t understand why hot snacks aren’t more common actually. After a visit to China town, I… Continue reading Just Vermicelli (vegan | gluten-free)
Shepherd’s Pie (vegan | gluten-free)
It’s human nature to crave comfort food. When times are rough, when you’ve got the weekday blues or simply when you’re reminiscing about the past, those home comforts are what we reach out for. Now that I no longer live with my parents (thank goodness for that!) I’m left to my own devices in every… Continue reading Shepherd’s Pie (vegan | gluten-free)
