Notes about Recipes in this book

• Celeriac pasta

  • Victoria_from_London on April 05, 2021

    Thin strips of briefly boiled celeriac as pasta surprisingly great; much quicker than pasta, especially with my slicer to speed the prep. Really enjoyed this; especially good with a pungent sauce like anchovies, garlic, chilli, broccoli, parmesan; covers the tangy edge to celeriac taste that I don't like.

• Tofu adobo

  • hbakke on August 21, 2021

    This was great served over cauliflower rice. The sauce was very flavorful and a little spicy from all the black pepper. It would have been better if not for the old, tough green beans I had. I would go with a much fresher, thinner green bean if I make this again.

    Really enjoyed this but a bit too spicy for the kids. Would have liked more veggies

• Bean & sauerkraut soup

  • hbakke on August 17, 2021

    Yum! This had a Reuben sandwich vibe from the caraway seeds and sauerkraut. I simplified the recipe by cooking the beans and kohlrabi in the pressure cooker for 25 minutes, then adding it to the pan I used to cook the onions and sauerkraut. I didn't rinse the sauerkraut because I like the flavor and added a dollop for garnish at the end. I would make this again.

• Panisse

  • willow_vqskrl on April 16, 2026

    These Panisse were really nice. I have made plain ones before but the herbs really made them taste lovely. I great substitute for me as I can’t eat potatoes.

• Carrot top pesto & carrots

  • Hannaha100 on October 14, 2020

    Made just the carrot top pesto. This is one of those "use the whole veg" recipes so didn't actually specify how many carrot tops to use which was a little frustrating (I had already separated them and used the carrots in something else). I had to guess the amounts. Carrot tops are growing on me - they remind me of parsley but slightly earthy/bitter and a bit chewy/tough. Cutting them up smaller definitely helps. Ate some on a sandwich and some on pasta and it was nice. Not better than basil pesto but nice enough to repeat to use the tops up.

• Ethiopian flat bread

  • willow_vqskrl on April 15, 2026

    Really enjoyed these and appreciated they were gluten free. Worked well with the Ethiopian red lentil stew

• Red lentil stew

  • willow_vqskrl on April 15, 2026

    Had to use much more water than the recipe stated. I think it should have been 750ml not 75ml as you usually cook lentil 1-3. I only put 2 1/2tablespoons of spice mix and that was very spicy.
