This chocolate lava cake from The Buddhist Chef is a vegan-friendly alternative made from chickpeas and cacao vegan chocolate.

Introduction

Have you ever wondered what a cloud tastes like? I think it might be this cake, which has chocolate... and chickpeas in it! Who knew chickpeas and chocolate could work together so well? This recipe will blow your mind. The secret is to bake the cakes just before serving them. The exterior of the cakes should be set, but the centers still runny. You'll have to keep a close eye on them during baking, but believe me, it's worth it!

My parents would “hide” nutrition inside my favorite foods like this cheeseburger soup. Cauliflower is a very stealthy vegetable that can sneak into many delicious meals, and their baked macaroni and cheese almost always had a hidden head of cauliflower inside. After I started cooking, my parents let me in on their secrets to make my “picky eater” plates healthier.

This easy brunch recipe from Ottolenghi Simple is quick, comforting, and can easily be used for a light dinner.

Introduction

This is a quick way to get a very comforting meal on the table in a wonderfully short amount of time. It’s a dish as happily eaten for brunch, with coffee, as it is for a light supper with some crusty white bread and a glass of wine. The leeks and spinach can be made up to 1 day ahead and kept in the fridge, ready for the eggs to be cracked in and braised.

This simple roasted squash recipe from Plenty More by Yotam Ottolenghi is sure to become a favourite.

Introduction

Sweet chile sauce has been making its way into dressings and dipping sauces for a while, but the rise in demand for the hot savory Sriracha sauce—originating in eastern Thailand and made from sun-ripened chile peppers and garlic, ground into a smooth paste—points to an increasing demand for the hot stuff. Recent threats of shortages have created a small panic among those addicted to the stuff. Mixing Sriracha with Greek yogurt and drizzling it over a dish like this is a fasttrack way to reach a sweet-sharp depth of flavor. The fresh herb paste brings in another layer of freshness, along with a visual “wow.” This is perhaps the simplest recipe in the book and, if I were a betting man, destined to become a favorite.

A recipe for a healthy vegetarian twist on the traditional Hawaiian poke bowl that uses tempeh instead of fish.

Introduction

Beautiful, healthy, and delicious. I’m speaking, of course, of one of my favorite meals: poke. This Hawaiian dish is traditionally made with fish, and its seasonings are heavily influenced by Japanese and other Asian cuisines. It’s simply divine! I make it with sesame tempeh and sushi rice seasoned with my personal touch, which is maple syrup, of course. This beach food can now be enjoyed right in your kitchen.
