Turn the clock back to just a few years ago, and vegans everywhere in the UK had a pretty hard time finding inspiration for things to cook. The vast majority of meat, fish and dairy-free dishes were either curries, simply replaced the protein with tofu or involved lots of hummus. Those things are all nice in moderation, but can quickly become tiring if they’re all that’s on offer. However, as more and more people become vegan (statistics vary somewhere between one and seven percent of the population), chefs and home cooks are starting to get creative when it comes to plant-based cooking.
The following recipes are testament to this new wave of vegan cookery. There’s no tofu, no chickpea curries and a welcome lack of meat substitutes. Instead, the eight dishes are plates that just happen to be vegan. Whether you’re catering for a vegan guest and want to serve something everyone will enjoy or just want to incorporate more delicious vegetables into your dinner parties, these are the recipes to follow.
