1 Pot Pumpkin Curry This Thai Red Pumpkin Curry is one of my favourite autumn recipes. Made with homemade red curry paste, it’s both spicy and fragrant. In my humble opinion pumpkin is one of those sadly under-utilised ingredients. Most pumpkins end up in the bin each year after being used as decorations for halloween. It’s my mission to show you that pumpkin is delicious and versatile. Pumpkin flesh is beautifully sweet and smooth. Plus, if stored correctly, pumpkins keep for ages because of their hard exterior skin. It’s a perfect autumn/winter ingredient to have in the pantry. This pumpkin curry is an amazing way to enjoy this glorious vegetable. The heat from the warm coconut curry perfectly pairs with the tender luscious pumpkin.

It’s ROAST SEASON! The British weather has decided that summer is now officially dead and buried. We can wave goodbye to lounging in parks and sunbathing on rooftops. Don’t be sad, I for one welcome October. It’s officially acceptable to start eating as much as you like. My Autumn routine consists of brisk walks, warm fires and most importantly - generous portions! What better way to welcome in the turn of the seasons than with a hearty British roast. Let the good times roll. This recipe for Vegan Sunday Roast With All The Trimmings - including harissa roast cauliflower, yorkshire puddings, crispy roast potatoes and luscious gravy - is part of my British favourites series that heating company @viessmann asked me to do in response to their recent article. Viessmann conducted a comprehensive environmental study of “Britain’s Favourites Foods” just to find out how bad they were. They challenged me to see if I could come up with better alternatives. > In there initial review Viessmann found the traditional Sunday Roast was as polluting as driving 140km by car. > My reworked recipe contributes a mere 15km. > That’s 125km of equivalent emissions saved (about the distance from London to Southampton)! Not bad.

GRAINS they're so hot right now. And for good reason. Grains are cheap, grains are sustainable and most importantly grains are delicious. In this recipe, Creamed Aubergine Wheat With Fried Sugar Snap Peas, I've used one of the most overlooked grains of the grainaissence (see what I did there) - plain old wheat. That's right wheat doesn't have to just be used to make flour you can just use it whole, and let me tell you wheat is so great. It's nutty with a wonderful bite, I love it. I think it might be one of my favourite carbs at the moment. What better way to enjoy wheat then with a wonderfully rich and creamy aubergine sauce. This sauce is so easy to make and is packed full of smoky flavour. But the secret to what makes this dish is the sugar snap peas. They tie everything together. Crunchy, fried chilli peas are so damn good. It's official, I'm putting them on everything.

Spicy Black Bean Noodle Broth A simple noodle broth that's flavoursome and rich. Blending black beans into the base of the soup gives give the broth a lovely thick texture that is silky and smooth. This recipe is as speedy as it is tasty. Taking under 20 minutes it's my go to for a lazy "nextflix recipe". It comes together in no time at all and provides maximum flavour for minimum effort. Plus, it's super flexible. I use the base broth with the black beans and mushrooms and just toss in anything I want with it. In the recipe pictured I've added coriander and spring onions but there's a whole host of combinations that you can try: If you're feeling like you need some more greens, why not wilt a few pak choi in the broth before serving. Or you can top the soup with a few crunchy fresh veg match-sticked or finely diced, I like to use carrots, parsnips or turnips. And the best thing, this dish is around 78% less polluting than the average UK meal, winner winner!

Jumping For JUNE! Yes it's the first week of June and my god am I glad we're here. June is one of my favourite months of the year. It is a time of naive British hope, and I love it for that. The weather is heating up and there’s still a belief that there might be a summer for once. People have relegated fears of unrelenting downpours and shock temperature changes to press conspiracies. Parks are overflowing and hordes are descending on small costal areas. Evening strolls in reveal people huddled round makeshift barbecues or beer bottle piles. Everyone seems to have forgotten the usual British stand-offishness. The British, for all our faults, know how best to enjoy the little sunshine we get. Nothing epitomises this spirit like the humble British strawberry. Strawberries are a ubiquitous part of the British summer psyche. Many countries would be fine eating these delicious juicy berries on their own. The British have decided that this is not good enough. Instead, we smother them in cream, pastry or alcohol, in attempts to ingest them as much as possible. I say, embrace the spirit of the British strawberry and squeeze the most out of the summer produce. I've just released a June compendium of recipes that use wonderful season ingredients.

Yellow Balls Of Crispy Heaven Crispy, chewy, salty - it's onion bhaji time. These glorious takeaway superstars have long been a favourite of mine. They're such a delicious side to have with a curry, and like most Indian food they're naturally plant-based and low carbon. Don't be intimidated by how intricate they look. Onion bhajis are really easy to make, and I've made it even easier. Traditional onion bhaji recipes call for gram flour (chickpea flour), but I realise most of us don't have that lying about at home (if you do, great job!). I created this no-gram flour recipe using just plain old flour so you can whip up a batch of onion bhajis with pantry ingredients. The key to onion bhajis is to slice the onion very finely. This allows the onion to cook properly when frying. Thick onions won't cook all the way through and you'll end up with them raw in the middle. But, other than that, these are super simple and take no time at all to make.

Smoky Delicious Breakfast Mess! Ah kedgeree - the wonderfully bizarre British Indian breakfast mash up. Smoky, savoury and filling. If I've learnt one thing over the years, it's that a dish that can be eaten at breakfast, lunch and dinner is normally always a keeper. Kedgeree is no exception. This staple of the Raj breakfast table it has gone through many incarnations over the years. Boiled eggs, smoked haddock and now I've veganised it with delicious smoked tofu from @tofooco. Kedgeree is excellent not only because it's delicious, but also because it is perfect for using up old rice. In fact, it's better with leftover rice which is slightly drier, making it better for frying. A breakfast dish that's flavourful, low carbon and reduces food waste? I think I've fallen in love.

The Cheesy Smile Of A Crazy Plant Dad Being stuck inside for the last 8 weeks has made me desperately miss the outside. Sadly, there is no garden in my tiny flat in South London. So I thought I would transform my balcony into a green oasis! An overstatement at best, though It's been glorious fun. There have been many trials and tribulations along the way. I've killed my seedlings, planted the wrong things, shouted at plant pots that simply haven't germinated... I've loved every minute of it. If there's one thing that coronavirus has taught us it's that learning how to grow our own food is important. Becoming self-reliant is somewhat of a pipe dream, but understanding how and where your food comes from is something everyone should aim for. One of the main benefits of growing your own veggies is you'll know what to look out for when buying in the shops. You'll get a better grasp on the food seasons and what should be locally available. One of the best things you can do for the environment is have a diet consisting of in-season locally sourced veggies. So what are you waiting for, get those seed trays out and parttttyyy #lowly #lowlyfood #eattheseasons #seasonalveggies #eatseasonal #balconygrowing #zerowaste #plantbased #plantbasedfortheplanet #vegansofldn #vegansofig #growyourownfood #growyourown #growingvegetables #growingveggies #gardening #urbangardening #balconygardening #sustainability
