Easy Patatas Bravas style Mediterranean potato recipe
I love doing fried potato recipes. This is like patatas bravas but a little different. Instead of being fried potatoes with a separate dipping sauce, this puts everything together during the cooking process. It’s a one-pan recipe that’s quicker and easier than a “traditional” patatas bravas recipe. Oh, and it’s vegan and delicious served with […]

Dairy-free cheesy potato gratin recipe
This is a super-cheesy, super-saucy variant on the traditional potato gratin which can be served as a filling accompaniment to a variety of dishes. This follows on from yesterday’s cheesy vegetable bake recipe, as I made this a day later (once we finally had some potatoes). What’s the difference between potato boulangere and potato gratin? […]

Dairy Free Cheesy Vegetable Bake
Being dairy-free, the thing I miss the most is cheese. When I first became a vegetarian back in 2007, I didn’t much care about cheese, but over the next twelve months, I really discovered it.

Vegan white sauce recipe
White sauce is the foundation of most milk-based sauces, including cheese sauce, peppercorn sauce, bechamel sauce, parsley sauce and soups such as clam chowder (the white one). I know this because, when I was 11 and learning Home Economics (now called the much edgier “food technology”) at school, I spent most of my time copying […]

Vanilla dairy-free choc-chip ice cream recipe

How to make vegan yogurt without yogurt cultures
While living in rural China, one serious problem I had was that it was impossible to buy dairy-free or vegan substitutes to dairy products. There’s a good reason for this. Chinese food uses ingredients differently, and is not a dairy-based cuisine. Dairy products are now widely available in China, and dairy additives have sneaked their […]

Holland-ish Sauce Vegan Hollandaise recipe for eggs benedict and eggs royale
I’m having serious cafe withdrawals at the moment. I miss going out to cafes and ordering food that I can’t make at home. So today I decided to do what I used to do in China when I felt like this. I decided to bring the cafe to me. I was craving eggs royale, which […]

I’m not vegan anymore (but I still eat vegan food).
I haven’t talked about food for a good long while, and there’s a reason for that: I’m not vegan any more. And I haven’t been for a while. You may remember my New Year’s resolution was to get back to veganism again. It didn’t really work out. Between the 9 month mixed state I’ve been […]
