Vegan Mapo Tofu (perfect Vegan Chinese New Year Recipe)

Published 13/01/2021, updated 15/01/2021 8 Comments

Vegan Mapo Tofu on white rice, in a bowl

Vegan Mapo Tofu is a delicious Sichuan dish of soft, silken tofu and shiitake in a gloriously rich, spicy and slightly tingly sauce. Simply perfect over a bed of rice. To turn this into a 30-minute easy dinner, put your rice on before you get the mapo tofu cooking. Or any other grain like quinoa, […]

Vegan Quinoa Salad with 17 Homegrown Herbs!

Published 27/07/2020, updated 27/07/2020 3 Comments

Vegan Quinoa Salad

This quinoa herb salad is incredibly aromatic and delicious with its multitude of herbs, each redolent with its own unique aroma. There is so much going on here with the herbs that the quinoa is almost an afterthought. I have a confession to make. I don’t like quinoa. In fact, I’d go as far as […]

Published 30/03/2020, updated 13/04/2020 7 Comments

Red Chilli Pesto Omelette

This Red Chilli Pesto Omelette is yet another recipe using one of my favourite sauces – pesto! Specifically, chilli pesto. But first, how are you all doing? In lockdown? Or voluntary isolation?

Beef Shigureni – a quick Japanese Beef Stew

Published 03/01/2020, updated 08/01/2020 8 Comments

Beef Shigureni LinsFood

First published March 2014. Updated January 2019. Remember my Japanese landlady? Well, as simple as this recipe is, she was one difficult lady to please – too dry, too hard, too soft! Good job I love beef, because boy, did I have a whole lot when I was learning this! “Shigure” means a quick or […]

Risotto Nero (Squid Ink Risotto, a Venetian Recipe)

Published 07/10/2019, updated 15/09/2020 7 Comments

Risotto Nero (Squid Ink Risotto)

This risotto is a Venetian classic and is a stunning dish to behold. It owes its identity to the good old squid, or specifically, to the squid ink itself. I hate to sound like my father in law, but in the (good?) old days, it was ink from the cuttlefish that was used for this […]

Vegan Paella (with Marinated Peppers and Artichokes)

Published 05/08/2019, updated 18/03/2020 16 Comments

Vegan paella with red peppers

This easy vegan paella is packed with the rich flavours of saffron, smoked paprika and marinated vegetables. Ready in 35 minutes! Paella is no stranger to most of you, if not all. Are you a fan? My family certainly is; we probably haven’t met a paella we didn’t fall in love with! What is Paella? […]
