Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Halloumi with raw courgettes, fried capers, lemon and mint

    • HJWilding on June 12, 2025

      Like this a lot. Did 1 courgette raw, 1 fried with the chilli & lemon zest. Didn't add capers this time. Might swap halloumi for fancy mushrooms, butter beans or something else vegan. Feta would do the job nicely.

  • Yogurt-roasted cauliflower with green sauce and almond couscous

    • infotrop on July 15, 2024

      Crispy yogurt-marinated cauliflower with an herby sauce over couscous adds up to a tasty & filling supper

  • Spicy egg and paneer flatbreads

    • Eleanorconroy on March 16, 2026

      This was good with parathas - I used 2 tsp mild chilli powder and didn't think it needed any chutneys or chilli sauce. I made the full mixture and froze half, which worked well and made for a very quick follow up dinner

  • Borlotti Bolognese

    • Eleanorconroy on March 10, 2026

      I made this with rosemary, chestnut mushrooms, passata and brown miso. It was nice - maybe adding a bit of thyme towards the end would give an alternative note? The main flavour was mushroom, but it was pretty straightforward and I'd make it again. I used the food processor to chop the veg and mushrooms - I'm not grating a mushroom!
