Vegans are not freaks

This is a wonderful soup, I took the idea from Madhur Jaffrey's "World of the East Vegetarian Cooking" and basically changed the method used because hers was a bit time consuming and in my opinion unnecesary as it turned out great, although I have no doubt that it must be even better if you do it her way! (which I will try one day) Ingredients (serves 2-4) 1 big chopped onion 1 chopped clove of garlic 1 teaspoon of ground cumin seeds 1/8 teaspoon of turmeric a pinch of cayen pepper (to taste) 1 can of coconut milk 3 cups of corn (I used frozen corn which she suggests in her recipe) The recipe calls for freshly grated coconut which I did not use and also a teaspoon of sugar which I didn't put it in for no particular reason. In a pan add some vegetable oil and when its hot add the onion and the garlic and stir until it is translucent. Then add the spices and stir well. Add the coconut milk and the corn, bring to a boil, and cook for aprox 45 min at low hea...

I made this soup with my sister the foodie in Vienna. It's easy to make, cheap and really delicious, perfect for cold winter days. Ingredients (4-6 servings) 4 garlic cloves, sliced A couple of tablespoons of olive oil About 4-6 cups vegetable stock, or enough to cover the beans Two cans of white beans, strained but not rinsed Half a savoy cabbage, cut into quarter inch strips 1/2 tsp dried oregano 1 bay leaf 1 tbs lemon juice Salt and pepper, to taste In a pot, put the olive oil and garlic cloves over medium heat. Once the garlic starts sizzling add the stock to keep the garlic from browning. Bring the stock to a boil and reduce a little (about 10-15 minutes). Add the beans and the bay leaf. Cook for about five minutes and add the oregano and the cabbage strips. Cook until it has softened and add the lemon. Taste for seasoning and adjust if necessary. Cook covered for a further five minutes. You can substitute the beans and the cabbage for any beans and leafy green...

Hello vegan lovers, Today I made Black Bean Soup and Homemade Flour Tortillas for my family. The tortillas are really different from the ones you get in the store, they are a little bit thicker and the have a lot more taste, they are soooo much nicer!  The recipes are really easy and really nice, I think the hardest ingredient to find is the black beans, but if you live in the UK Morrisons usually has them or try an Asian supermarket. Ingredients: (for 2-4 servings) two cans of black beans (400 gr), rinsed 1 chopped medium onion 4 chopped cloves of garlic 1 chopped pepper (I prefer green) 1 chopped chili (depending on how spicy you like it choose a different kind of chili) 1 cube of vegetable stock 1 can of chopped tomatoes 1 tsp of cumin some chili powder water salt fresh coriander (cilantro) For the flour tortillas: 2 cups of plain flour salt 1/4 cup of vegan spread (butter substitute, usually made of soya, for example "Alpro soya spread") a...
