boring old fashioned vegan food March 20, 2007 8 out of 10 found this review helpful
this is the kind of food that gives veganism a bad name. i had this book for several years and have eventually given it to a charity shop because it was just gathering dust. there are so many better vegan cook books out there - i.e. vegan feasts, the new vegan, the voluptous vegan. please try these first!
Excellent, no nonsense recipes June 27, 2005 35 out of 35 found this review helpful
The latest edition of a book I've been using for over a quarter-century - updated to remove such long-forgotton products as "Jumbo Grills" and "Marigold Vegetarian Meat"!An unpretentious book of traditional British fare given the vegan twist - simple, inexpensive but delicious and filling recipes made from easy to obtain ingredients, coupled with a helpful introduction to vegan nutrition. Everything from salads to stodgy hot sweets (the raisin pud is a particular joy) via roasts, cakes, stews, curries, baking and much more. Probably the most useful cookbook on my shelf.
Highly Recommended June 25, 2002 48 out of 48 found this review helpful
A fully updated version of her earlier recipe book. Loads of delicious recipes, which are made with a minimum of ingredients and very easy to follow recipes.A brilliant introduction to vegan cooking, incorporating lots of equivalents to favourite meat and dairy recipes. Lots of desserts and cakes included, as well as savoury dishes, sauces and soups. A5 size, 137 pages - very good value for money.
