Recipe: Vegan Hot Dogs

Image: Vegan hot dog in a not-so-vegan bread roll and tasty cheese.
There’s one thing I love is hot dogs, especially in batter, and, although in Australia, Sanitarium make a great version, I really do want to try and make one from scratch.  This isn’t quite there yet, but this hot dog (withouth the colouring) has […]

Recipe: Kumquat Marmalade

Updated: This has just been awarded the weekly winner of the Golden Gnome award for “Best Snack/Dessert” on Make Me Hungry’s flickr group. View here.

Who can’t resist waking up to crusty bread, spread with butter and fresh marmalade?
I guess when you’re a child, it’s not very appealing but for those a little older it’s […]

Recipe: Vegan Steak

Currently I’m trying to perfect the Vegan Steak.  I’ve been researching the ingredients and various steaks made by manufacturer’s to get an idea of what goes in them and they appear to be quite easy to work out.   The problem is, getting the consistency and look and feel.
This first attempt isn’t that bad, although I’d […]

Recipe: Parmesan Crusted Polenta Fries

These delicious fries are better than the real thing! I was able to find some ready-made polenta in a local supermarket but it’s sooo easy to make that it doesn’t matter if you can’t find it at yours.
I’ve served this with some parmesan crusted asparagus and a vegetarian parmigiana. The whole meal went […]

Recipe: Bruschetta Pizza Subs

Although this is quite simple to make, it’s a really enjoyable meal that I wanted to share with you all.  You can make it as a snack for yourself for lunch or get away with serving at a dinner party as some appetisers.
There’s not much preparation at all, as the bruschetta mix can be found […]

Recipe: Home-made Roti

These rotis are traditional to Sri Lanka. Unfortunately fresh coconut is used normally, where I’ve had to resort to adapting usually a couple of different coconut-flavoured ingredients to get a similar taste.
My grandmother’s version was a lot thicker from memory and unfortunately I’m afraid to say I love hers better. However, I’ve previously […]

Recipe: Vegetarian Bangers with Rosemary & Thyme Gravy

With all the types of mock meats on the market, no vegetarian (or vegan for that matter) has to miss out! These little sausages are made with the Sanitarium brand in Australia, but I’m sure you can find your alternative sausage wherever you come from! I certainly have found alternatives whilst visiting in […]

Recipes: Vegetarian-style BLT

This light and quick snack for lunch is a great vegetarian option of the traditional BLT (Bacon, Lettuce and Tomato). I’ve placed a few optional steps in here, which are tried and tested. They are great additions, but this photographed version is a simple version with the use of a parmesan-topped roll.
Serves:
One
Ingredients:

1/2 tsp […]

Recipe: Vegetarian Cordon Bleu

Following on from the Vegetarian Weiner Schnitzel a couple of weeks ago, this recipe uses the same ingredients but a little add-on from it.
I think it definitely earns it’s own recipe because it’s such a mouth-watering treat! Placing a piece of rich swiss cheese (or in this case, Vegetarian Edam cheese) and some […]

Recipe: German Vegetarian Wiener Schnitzel (Breaded Gluten Flour)

Have you ever looked at those authentic wiener schnitzels from Germany and wished that they made a vegetarian version?
Well I think I might have just found the answer for all of us here!
This schnitzel is made with gluten flour (inspired by the recipe in La Dolce Vegan by Sarah Kramer) and boiled in a vegetable […]
