Looking forward to trying these 💖💖💖

What better way is there to enjoy a Sunday night than in the company of a new cookery book 😍

There’s a few nice surprises in the list and I have to confess a few celebs I’ve not heard of too!

This was an Iranian feast I cooked up today-

VEGAN ADAS POLO BA KADOO HALVAI

Spiced rice and lentils, with melting, unctuous caramelised onions and Barberries (the ingredient you didn’t quite get Sue and Gail), served with roasted butternut squash and dates, vegan mince with cinnamon and nutmeg, pistachios and pomegranate seeds.

And on the side Baba Ganoush, Tapenade(not Iranian but it went rather well) and Yoghurt…. Oh and flat bread.

Pretty blimmin yum if I say so myself!

Created a very delicious recipe using these beauties today….. can you identify all of them?

Cinnamon and Cardomom Buns with Rosewater Icing, Rose Petals and Pistachios ❤️

Valentine’s baking ✅

Gorgeous Solstice celebration with my even more gorgeous friends. We filled our tummies to the brim, laughed and talked and set our intentions for the coming season. Here’s to a wonderful festive season for all ❤️

Here in Glastonbury we like to observe the turning of the wheel, and this year almost more than ever, welcoming back the light. Today I am cooking up a Solstice feast to share with friends and after that we will make some prayers for the year to come, whilst burning anything that we have in our life that is no longer serving us….. could be a big cauldron of fire this year! Wishing you my Insta Fam a very Merry Yule and a Happy and Blessed Solstice wherever you are in the world ⭐️❤️🎄⭐️❤️🎄⭐️❤️🎄⭐️❤️🎄

Vegan Panforte. Most probably a million calories but, all things considered, every chewy, chocolatey, nutty, gingery, cherry mouthful is worth it and bearing in mind so far we have survived 2021, well deserved ♥️

Posh Vegan Raspberry and Peanut Chocolate Brownies ready to wrap 🎄🎄🎄

How high have you been on the Scoville heat scale?

I’m not entirely sure what convinced me that making two types of curry, a Tamarind and a Coriander chutney was a good idea on a blimmin’ Monday night…. but there we go!! Roast Potato Chaat and Pumpkin Biriyani…. all the recipes in this month’s edition of Food magazine this month. It may have been a bit of a mission but it was WELL worth it, and I won’t need to cook before Tai Chi tomorrow night…. or come to think of it Meditation on Wednesday night 😆😆😆

Happy World Vegan Day 🍋🍊🍐🍎🍏🍌🍉🍇🍓🫐🥭🍑🍒🍈🥥🥝🍅🍆🥑🫑🌶🥒🥬🥦🌽🥕🫒🧄🧅🍠🥔

There’s no doubt (and lots of Science) that eating a varied plant based diet is, for most people, the healthiest way to live.

So congratulations Posh Vegan community, you are choosing well for your future 😍

Sounding out an idea 🤩

Would anyone in the Glastonbury area be interested in Vegan cookery classes if I could find a venue to hold them in?

🥗Maybe starting with some basics or focusing on one meal.

🥙I’m thinking half a day, then eating what we’ve made for a late lunch.

What do you think 🤔

Look forward to this 💚

Vegan Panforte

I REALLY want to make this at Christmas.

Anyone else starting to plan their Christmas baking? 💚

Vegan Hobnobs. Quick, easy and so delicious. Add melted chocolate on top too if you so desire, but I just fancied plain today. To serve, add a big mug of tea and a book 💚

What are your thoughts on this??

Something for Samhain? 💚

Nice to have friends for lunch today. Carrot Lox with Garlic and Herb Cashew Cheese on Spelt Crackers, followed by Pulled Jackfruit, Cauliflower Cheese, Roasties, Broccoli, Gravy and Apple Sauce. Desert was Pear and Almond Crumble and Ice Cream but I forgot to take a picture of that! It’s always a pleasure cooking for others….. thinking of doing some Pop-Up Vegan Sunday Roasts this Autumn 🍂 🧑🏻‍🍳🍁🍄

Day 2 of Three Day Gravy….. make a Demi Glacé using yesterday’s stock. I will leave this to stand overnight now before passing through a sieve tomorrow 💚

Day 1 of my Three Day Gravy…. Make the stock

Nearly the end of the week and fridge foraging produced a potato an onion and two corn on the cobs from my Riverford veg box last week, so…… Sweetcorn Chowder it was…… made creamy by a small pot of Soy Cream.
Delicious, homely and comforting 💚

For an early supper tonight I made a big bubbling pot of Ribolitta, with Cavalo Nero and Cannellini beans with Cheesy garlic bread because…… it’s……. BAKE OFF! Sooooo excited to meet the new contestants and simply fabulous that there’s a Vegan amongst them

Harrisa Aubergine, Pomegranate seeds, Cachumba salad, Coconut Yoghurt and a sprinkle of Sumac…. Quick, fresh, easy and delicious ❤️

I don’t buy much pre-prepared ready made food, but, I did try these tonight and I have to say that with a sweet chilli sauce to dip in, they were absolutely yummy 😋

Turmeric Sour Dough
Deeeeelish 💛🧡💛🧡
