20 Minute Vegan Banana Cake The perfect recipe to satisfy those comfort food cravings whilst you #stayathome. This vegan banana cake is so simple and delicious - it's light, fluffy, moist and the best part is it takes just 20 minutes! It's perfect for when you're hunting for that sweet hit but you can't be bothered to take ages working out a complex recipe. To help those of you whom are self isolating and might not be able to get to the shops - the cake batter only uses commonly found pantry ingredients. The recipe in the video is for a banana cake, however the base batter is super flexible and you can use many other ingredients with it. Here's some different varieties: 1. Apple cake - substitute the chopped banana for a chopped apple. 2. Chocolate cake - remove the single chopped banana and add 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder (add a little more plant based milk if too thick) 3. Marmalade cake - remove the single chopped banana and add 2 tablespoons of marmalade This cake is also great to get kids involved in the kitchen. It only uses a single mixing bowl and has very simple measurements. Why not make a cake party with your family and see whom comes up with the best cake variety!

Friday Night Blues? Now we're all stuck at inside it can be easy to feel lonely or miserable on a Friday night. The day of the week where most of us used to blow off steam and spend time with our family, friends or significant others. For me going to restaurants was a big part of my Friday night and it's sad not to have that experience, even for the short term. But you can bring the Friday night frivolity into the home. Why not take tonight, or one night day this week, dress up, crack out the wine, prep something special for dinner and make an occasion of it. Why not dial in your mates digitally and have a virtual dinner party. I'm calling it #coronadatenight and I'll be designing 3 course meals for you and your loved ones to enjoy together during this challenging time. But you don't need me to get started. Just wack out the vino and make your very best dish to celebrate. Use the hashtag or tag me in your photos and I'll share them to spread the positive energy! If you need some ideas - have you tried my Best Ever Vegan Bolognese (pictured)?! Something I missed desperately as a vegan was a simple bolognese sauce. I used to love the rich sauce as an easy addition to pasta. So earlier this year I decided to dedicate a few months to try and make a plant-based version that would satisfy my cravings. I came up with this winner of a recipe and let me tell you it is delicious. It's perfect for a little indulgence, as it gives you that restaurant feel pasta at home!

Super Simple Veggie Bake! This simple tray bake recipe will satisfy your savoury pastry cravings. Think vegetable pizza but with a crumbly pastry bottom. Incredible. The full recipe link for this Caramelised Squash and Red Onion Bake is in the bio, and is delish, but don't worry if you don't have all the recipe ingredients. Here's my fool proof formula for creating a super tasty bake with whatever you have: 1. You need 500 g of puff pastry, rolled out to about 1cm thick. Pro tip - you can freeze store bought pastry in the store box/packet and keep for up to 6 months! 2. Choose 1 can of beans/pulses and squash it into a loose paste. Spread this over the bottom of the pastry evenly leaving a 3cm border. I've used chickpeas in the recipe but you can use whatever you feel like. I've tried cannellini, black and white beans in the past. 3. Chop roughly 2 kilos of whatever veg you want and mix with 3 tablespoons of the olive oil, 3 cloves chopped garlic, 2 tsp paprika, 2 tsp sugar, 1 tsp thyme and 1 tsp of salt. Roast for 20 mins in a 200˚c oven. I've used squash & red onion, but anything will work - some ideas: courgette, peppers, pumpkins, aubergine. 4. Once roasted arrange your veg on top of you pastry. Keeping the border in tact. Place in the oven again and roast for 15 mins more. 5. Finish your veggie bake by drizzling with some citrus (lime/lemon/orange). Then add whatever garnish you want to freshen it up. I suggest 1 tablespoon of seeds, 2 tablespoon of chopped fresh herbs and 1 tablespoon of chopped chilli or spring onion. If you come up with a delicious veggie bake using the above formula, tag me in the picture so I can share your wonderful creation! #lowly #lowlyfood #veggiebake #vegetablebake #baking #savourybakes #veggiepizza #squash #spring #springrecipes #stayhomerecipes #quarantinerecipes #simplerecipes #veganrecipes #veganpizza #veganpastry #easyrecipes #quarantinetips #stayhome #stayhomecooking #quickandeasy #recipetips #quickmeals #roastveggies #vegansofldn #plantbasedfortheplanet #sustainablerecipes #pbnfood #eatgoodfeelgood #cookingtips

New Youtube Vid Up! I made an accompanying video to my super popular baked carrot and parsnip chickpea curry. Link to the video is in the bio, tap the corresponding picture. I realise that many of you cooking this recipe might not have all the ingredients because of corona causing havoc at the supermarket. Don't worry, here's my tips on how to make it with what you have at home: The base sauce will incorporate anything you want to throw at it. So if you're lacking carrots, parsnips or the greens, don't panic. Just make the ginger/onion/garlic/tomato base and wack in whatever you have. It's perfect for using up past their best veggies. If you don't have all of the spices, my advice is to just use the garam masala, sugar and salt. Alternatively if you don't have the garam masala using cumin with mild curry powder or chilli flakes will work just as well - throw in some paprika if you have it too. If you don't have chickpeas don't fret, I've used many other pulses in this dish and they all work great. Just be sure to add the same cooked weight (500g) and you will be fine. Some suggestions are kidney beans and/or green lentils, but most things will work fine. #lowly #lowlyfood #quarantinerecipes #stayhomerecipes #vegancurry #curry #veganindian #indianfood #dinner #masala #chickpeas #onepotrecipes #onepotmeals #recipevids #recipevidoes #feedfeed #instafood #vegansofldn #plantbasedfortheplanet #plantbased #instafood #whatveganseat #bestofvegan #feedfeed #pbnfood #healthyfood #staysafe #stayhome

Pantry Pasta!! 🥫🍝 This amazing One Pot Pasta With A Chickpea And Tomato Sauce is a winner for trying times. It's super quick to make and uses only store cupboard ingredients. Perfect for that lockdown life! 🔒 Canned chickpeas and tomatoes are a revelation. Mashing the chickpeas lightly with a fork or potato masher creates a lovely crumbly texture. Then cooking the pasta in the sauce creates a wonderful thick broth which is so comforting and tasty. The best thing is there is minimal washing up - it all happens in one pot. Deeeelightful.

Stay At Home Mediterranean Spiced Rice! Many of us are trying to keep home these days. Social distancing is important to protect those at risk. I've designed this recipe to work with whatever you've got in the pantry. I've used radishes, raisins, lentils and pomegranates mixed in with the wonderfully fragrant rice. However, you can use whatever you have available. The base spiced rice recipe works well with a variety of ingredients. The basic premise is simple - you want to add: > one thing crunchy and fresh > one thing sweet and citrusy > one legume/pulse > one herb to brighten up. Some ideas to get you started: - Green beans, chickpeas, lemon and parsley. - Sliced carrots, cannellini beans, orange and thyme. #lowly #lowlyfood #stayhome #flattenthecurve #quarantinerecipes #stayinghome #stayhomerecipes #veganrecipes #pantryrecipes #rice #ricerecipes #mediterraneanrecipes #mediterraneanrice #radish #spring #seasonalrecipes #quickandeasy #quickandeasyvegan #simplerice #vegansofldn #whatveganseat #healthy #healthyrecipes #spring #pbnfood #plantbased #salads #plantbasedsalads

It's the First Day Of Spring!! 🎉🌼 It has been all a bit doom and gloom recently but here's something to celebrate. The days are getting longer, the sun is coming out, and most importantly those veggies are coming into season! Here's a wonderful Super Green Pasta recipe that's packed full of amazing immune boosting vegetables. In this recipe I've used spring seasonal stars - kale, purple sprouting broccoli and green cabbage - but you can use just about any green vegetable you want with it. Whatever you have at home in the cupboard will work - frozen peas, green beans, spinach, chard, anything will do. The basic premise is simple 1) Blend one of your leafy greens with your pesto to make a richer base for the sauce 2) Steam the other veggies 3) Mix together with the pasta and your pulse/legume of choice. 4) Nap happy in a carb coma!

Coronavirus Cuisine. Starting from today I'll be gearing a large portion of my recipes towards pantry staples and bulk cooking. Over the next few months, self isolation and social distancing are going to become a reality for most. I want to make it easy for you to still enjoy your food in a less than ideal situation. I'm purposefully designing recipes that can be made to last for longer or with simple store cupboard ingredients. It's easy to get overwhelmed in the current climate and worry too much. Stay positive and stay safe. The bright side is you can eat as many carbs as you want! The recipe for this chickpea curry with roast carrot and parsnip is in the bio. It's great to make in bulk and tastes just as good heated from frozen. Let me know in the comments which ingredients you want me to help you use in the coming weeks. 👇 #lowly #lowlyfood #coronavirus #bulkcooking #batchcooking #prepping #coronaviruscuisine #mealprep #veganmealprep #healthy #healthyfood #vegansofldn #bulkrecipes #mealprepping #wholefoods #curry #vegancurry #veganeats #veganlondon #veganeats #veganuk #simplerecipes #easyrecipes #eatgoodfeelgood #health #eatwellbewell #pbnfood #feedfeed #cookingtips #coronacurrychallenge

Breakfast Anyone!? 🙋♂️ Try these Molasses Baked Beans! There's nothing more British then enjoying a tin of hot baked beans looking out on the grey drizzle of the morning. I love baked beans, and they're packed full of great nutrients and protein. Here's my take on the British classic. This home made version is rich and sumptuous. The added molasses gives a wonderful thickness to the sauce which is perfect for heaping over toast in the morning. But let's be honest, you're going to be enjoying these for much more than breakfast. I'm not judging! What's your favourite spot to enjoy a weekend breakfast?
