It’s nearly Hallowe’en, folks, which means I have yet another excuse to dress up as a Harry Potter character without even considering whether or not that fits the usual spooky criteria. I just don’t care! It’s all about the robe potential. Precisely zero points for guessing who I was meant to be*. Arguably there is…

Coronation Chickpea Naan Pizza
It’s okay, you can say it; I’m a terrible person. I’ve been off gallivanting* and have subsequently completely neglected to post any recipes, in spite of the fact that several new ones have left my kitchen in the last month. I have taken very few photos, and mostly eaten stuff without thinking about what went into…
Strawberry & Passion fruit Almond Mess
You know who’s a mess? Me. However, fruity though I may be, I did not go to Eton; there are several reasons for this, but most of them will probably be fairly obvious. That’s never stopped anyone from eating Eton Mess, however, and I am not one to be cowed by a bunch of lads…
Sticky Tofu with Spring Onions & Cashews
It’s been too long since I’ve had tofu, and I need some of that weird, sponge-y goodness in my life again. I’m also trying to pack out my meals with really lean protein so that I stop wanting to eat an entire sharing bag of Kettle Chips after dinner while sobbing. What do they put in those…
Balsamic Onion, Goat Cheese & Samphire Tart
What is samphire? Good question! Samphire is something that we ate raw straight off the rain-soaked salt marshes of some place in the arse-end of nowhere whilst on some kind of Geography trip, when we were but knee-high to a grasshopper and wanted nothing more than to stand in the rain eating strange vegetables. English…
Aubergine Katsu Curry with Turmeric Rice
Something that everyone seems to be completely obsessed with at the moment, regardless of whether or not they have any other intersecting interests, is Katsu curry. I am not immune to its charms, even though I’m more likely to associate curry with Indian food rather than Japanese cuisine. Additionally, I generally find that (since money…
Kimchi Fried Rice
This is me, jumping enthusiastically on the bandwagon, arms flailing like a rabid octopus* as I ride towards victory. I’ve been doing fried rice at home for a few years now, and I have a recent (and passionate) love affair with kimchi, thanks to my equally recent and passionate love affair with Wagamama — so,…
Easy Cheesy Lentil Lasagne
What do we want? A pepper-free vegetarian lasagne! When do we want it? Twice already this week APPARENTLY. Okay, I’m not going to say that this is the best vegetarian lasagne you’ll ever eat, but I want you to at least be open to the idea that it could be. At the very least it…
Life-Changing Cauliflower Tacos
As I type this the roof of my mouth is burning due to the excess amount of chipotle mayo I put on my tacos, but holy mother of vegetables do I not regret one single bite of that meal. Isla and I didn’t even sit down. I was going to insert a delightful picture of…
Beetroot & Lentil Chimichurri Burgers with Slaw
Veggie burgers are basically my arch nemesis. They’re the Joker to my Batman (without the weird sexual tension and well-moulded plastic abs); the Blofeld to my Bond (also without the sexual tension); the Lex Luthor to my Superman (I don’t remember any sexual tension but I’ve been wrong before*). Basically I just can’t make them….
