I am happy to announce that these are the 1st proper VEGAN hard-boiled eggs in the history of the world. They are due to be featured in an upcoming vegan magazine, which I will announce closer to the time. Nothing can come close to these, they taste like eggs and look exactly like them – a completely unique recipe. These Vegan ‘Eggs’ are dedicated to every compassionate mother who would rather not use eggs in [...]

I think I’ve cracked it !!  Sorry for the pun – couldn’t resist . . . Very simple to make once you SEE how – like all genius things, they are simple after they have been conceptualized made and served – so often the case with the benefit of hindsight !   I had been creating a yolk in my head for over a year, then I actually made and posted my hard boiled egg, with [...]

Can you imagine a soy-free, cholesterol-free, optionally gluten-free, faux meat-free BURGER that tastes so good you could become hooked ? Discover the magic of a great taste in a burger – healthy ingredients and a wonderful aroma that could convert any person contemplating veganism. But better than anything ever, YOU can make these burgers in the comfort of your own home, when you like, and as many times as you wish.  They can be frozen, [...]

I have been creating and re-creating the vegan hard-boiled egg for many months now – the ‘yolk’ was a masterpiece in the making, but the ‘white’ was simple . . . just tofu.  My British partner loves ‘Egg Mayonnaise’ sandwiches and has missed them. As a student I worked in one of London’s great city sandwich shops called ‘Crumbs of Comfort’  – they made a mean egg mayo and I learnt many tricks and secrets [...]

My father ran his own restaurant for decades – if you were to survive in London’s West End, competing with fierce outlets that were fighting for the ‘same piece of bacon’, so to speak, then you had to prove your own ‘bacon’ (pardon the terminology, no pun intended). I saw those early morning breakfasts being dished out, and my father sweating over the high temperature cookers – but he made a mean bean breakfast – [...]

The traditional steak sandwich is a fairly simple affair – a slab of good quality grilled or fried beefsteak served on bread or in a roll with a choice of toppings.  Fried onions are a must in my book – in fact, I have caramelized mine, and also added a simple but tasty mushroom topping.  You can accompany this with a simple salad garnishing – and you have yourself a great VEGAN MANFOOD pick-me-up ! [...]

A rich yet light pancake.  I have made many versions, but this is by far the best – it’s got a crunch about it, it’s got a beautiful golden colour to it, it’s light in texture, yet rich in flavour, it’s better than egg pancakes I used to make and I am so excited to introduce you to the best vegan pancakes around (I have included a gluten free recipe here too – by substituting [...]

This is a variation on my new vegan omelette – the Spanish Omelette is a popular dish, and an ideal way to cook an interesting array of vegetables.  Filled with vegan cheese, this makes a delicious meal in itself.  This one turned out to be sublime – we’ve just had it for the second time, and it disappeared in an instant. Enjoy ! INGREDIENTS FOR THE FILLING 4 slices of vegan cheese of your choice, cut [...]

NEW REVISED RECIPE I created an eggless vegan cholesterol-free omelette a short time ago. It was light and full of promise, but it needed a deeper, richer taste, less ‘floury’, and a more exciting texture. Making egg dishes without the use of eggs is indeed a challenge, both in the taste and especially in the texture arena. After some experimentation I reached a wonderful balance and I hope this fulfils all your egg omelette cravings, [...]
