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…

Roasted Balsamic Tomato & Basil Risotto
I’ve been really off-track with my eating recently, although I can’t be mad about that given the fantastic bank holiday weekend I just enjoyed. Spa day with my best gals, a copious number of Life-Changing Tacos, and more wine than any of us would really care to admit to having consumed, for fear of tarnishing…
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….
Roasted Chickpea & Basa Curry
My favourite thing about the fish ‘basa’ is that autocorrect, my mum, the postman, and almost every other resident of the United Kingdom believes that I mean ‘bass’. I do not. I mean basa. It’s a kind of catfish, it’s absolutely awesome smoked, and it’s generally much cheaper than cod or haddock; it’s become more popular…
Pan-fried Gnocchi with Pancetta & Sage
The one marvellous thing about abandoning Isla for an evening of wine-based debauchery with my friend who lives round the corner is that she eats meat. I can eat meat. Meat. I love vegetarian food and I’m kind of obsessed with tofu (which you may have noticed by now) – given that I no longer eat…
Smoky Fish & Lentil Winter Stew
Tonight I was going to make soup, but then I had one of those moments when you realise your entire brain has melted out of your ears (completely ruining your upholstery) and you’d planned something else for dinner only the night before. And you’d taken something out of the freezer. You’re trapped. You must eat the…
Goats’ Cheese & Thyme Risotto with Honey-Roasted Parsnips
Now that is a lengthy title. Yikes. I might need a nap.* I’m absolutely determined it’s Spring now, by the way; soon I’ll be donning my denim shorts and exposing my paper-white legs to the world, blinding passers-by and causing pedestrians to fall into nearby bodies of water. In light of the change in seasons (heralded by…
Crispy Lemon Tofu & Mushroom Pilaf
I’m going to start this off with a disclaimer: I am not a vegan. However, a couple of days ago I looked dead into the eyes of a chicken (with whom I had fallen in platonic love and named Vera) and she stared. Me. Down. So I guess I don’t eat chicken anymore. Tofu, however, is…
