East: 120 Easy and Delicious Asian-inspired Vegetarian and Vegan recipes

Product Information

Her first two books featured Indian recipes, but in East she has collected delectable recipes from all over Asia. When I ran out of books, I packed Arya and a notebook into a baby carrier and went on a food safari, to find the best laksa, bun cha or massaman curry in London. Tap the tray to release any air bubbles, then bake for 12 minutes, or until the sponge springs back to the touch. However, as a vegan, my preference is always to have a vegan, fully plant-based cookbook to look through. To my untrained palate, the recipes in East by Meera Sodha have an authentic taste and feel and her approach makes it easy to produce dishes that you may otherwise have veered away from.

When the rice is tender (ie there is no chalkiness in the centre), take it off the heat and spoon into a serving bowl. Brussels sprout nasi goreng: I think I’ve always had Brussels sprouts roasted as a side or shaved in a salad. When Made in India was published in the UK, it became an instant top-ten bestseller and was named one of the year's best books by many newspapers and periodicals.

Cook for 15 to 20 minutes over a medium heat, stirring frequently to remove as much water as possible, then add the garlic and soy sauce and cook for a further 5 minutes. I haven't been able to put it down and have tried recipes from it everyday since and they have all worked well and been absolutely delicious and like nothing I have tasted before!

And with 120 recipes crammed inside, Meera introduces you to dishes from every corner of the East and South Asia whilst placing vegetables at the heart of them all. This meant that elaborate dishes, or those that required too much time to prepare or cook, were left out. This triumph of a cookbook is a must for anyone who follows a meat-free diet, who is keen to introduce more vegetables into their daily cooking, or simply enjoys bringing the delicious flavours of the East into their kitchen at home. Drawing from her 'New Vegan' Guardian column, Meera Sodha's stunning new collection also features plenty of brand-new recipes inspired by a wide range of Asian cuisines. This incredible cookbook is a staple in our household, discovered thanks to some friends who made us the doriyaki pancakes with blueberry mascarpone.Add the peas, mint, lime juice, 3 tbsp of sesame oil and the salt, and pulse a few times (don’t blend: you don’t want soup). De achtergrond bij elk gerecht, de uitleg over allerlei kerningrediënten, prachtige foto's, ik raad dit kookboek echt aan iedereen aan die (meer) veganistisch wil eten. Take the cake out of the oven and leave to rest for exactly one minute, then place a sheet of baking paper over the top, followed by a large chopping board. It’s the sort of cookbook that has you inadvertently saying ‘ooh, that looks good’ or ‘I need that in my life’ with every turn of a page.
