I think I may have to start a section of this journal for recipes that aren’t proper recipes but which people ask me for. You know, for recipes like pasta bolognese or fruit crumble, which are a handful of this,…

Recipe: Blood orange curd cheesecake with raspberries
This recipe started as a Women’s Weekly recipe for Lemon Curd Cheesecake. However, by the time I actually got to serving this recipe, I think it only had three ingredients in common with the original – eggs, butter and cream…
Recipe: Potato and Kale Enchiladas
By request, another recipe adapted from Veganomicon, and the last I’m going to post this year, for reasons of fair use. Mostly what I changed in this recipe was the chilli sauce, which developed quite a different range of chillis…
Recipe: Roast Garlic and White Bean Chilli
Photographic evidence of Cross-Dressing Ken’s latest cake adventures will be up later this evening, but I just need to get this recipe down before I forget what I did! This is another vegan chilli recipe, but this time it’s gluten…
Recipe: Vegetarian Chilli
DON’T FORGET TO SOAK YOUR BEANS! (putting them in to soak before you go to work in the morning is fine) This recipe is adapted from one of the Moosewood Cookbooks – I’m afraid I can’t recall which, as I…
Recipe: Microwave Lemon Curd, with bonus meringue
Just a short post today, because today has been loooong… and it hasn’t even had any cooking in it. Of course, it might have felt less loooong if I hadn’t decided last night that the best solution to ‘where can…

Recipe: Raspberry, Soy and Coconut Ice-cream
This recipe comes more or less directly from Veganomicon, with a little extra verbiage from me. I’m afraid you do need a blender and an icecream maker for this – I suppose in a pinch you could put everything through…
Basics that aren’t: Scones
This recipe doesn’t come with pictures, because the first thing you need to know about making scones is that the faster you make them, the better they taste. That means no stopping at every step to take the lens cap…
Recipe: Nearly Vegan Banana Bread with Indian Flavours
This recipe is as vegan as a cake can be that has honey in it. I don’t actually know any vegans who eat honey, but I’ve heard they exist. But don’t worry – honey could easily be swapped out in…
