This dessert was created after discussing with my BFF Michelle what we could create with her elderflower curd recipe and she suggested a Sabayon, which ended up being a Zabaione. Sadly in the end we couldn’t get together this week so I used a lemon curd, which cuts through the custard beautifully. I’m sure I can convince Michelle to share her elderflower curd recipe with us at a later date. The Zabaione recipe I have used comes from ‘The Vegan Italian Kitchen‘ so check out that blog if you fancy this custard in cream horns, which does sound amazing! All I did was reduce the corn flour a littl ..read more

The weather has been gorgeous all week long in Yorkshire. I even caught a little sunburn! It’s just about to hit summer and what better to eat than a bomb vegan burger? This burger is so flavourful and full of plant protein. It even contains a made in Yorkshire ingredient (I’ll big this one up for free, it’s just that good). Henderson’s relish can be found in supermarkets or online. If you can’t get your hands on it then you’ll have to leave it out and sub for a little bbq sauce or soy sauce. These burgers are easy to make, healthy and hearty. The trickiest thing about making burgers is getti ..read more

I’ve tried several times since to find something close to that meal; Packets of rice, oven meals claiming to be paella etc. Obviously none of them came close. A couple of years ago I scribbled down a recipe, regretfully I can’t remember where from but I tip my hat to you all the same. I’ve made it several times si ..read more

Hello and welcome to my vegan blog! My vegan journey began about 16 months ago, following several years as a vegetarian. I also had to give up gluten a couple of years back, due to an intolerance, so there will be plenty of gluten free friendly recipes to be found here. Don’t worry if you’re not gluten free, you can sub in your delicious gluten. I wasn’t huge on cooking before I decided to be vegetarian, I’d cook up an occasional ‘Sunday dinner’ or spaghetti on request but it didn’t really interest me. Then when I was transitioning, I started to experiment and try new things. I found that I h ..read more
