What's your fave veggie/vegan recipe (that doesn't include aubergine)

[Bemyclementine]

Looking for something really tasty, I like most things but don't eat a lot of beans/pulses. Happy to try though.

These are delicious, a big favourite https://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/pan-roast_lime_feta_and_27230/amp

Anna Jones is brilliant if you’re looking for some new vegetarian ideas.

This but I use butternut squash instead of pumpkin and store bought pastry.

Also shakshuka with feta! (There’s a million recipes out there)

Nigella’s Roasted Cauli is v tasty - nice with hummus, (vegan) feta etc added to bulk it out a little too. Easy to bung it all in the oven too.

Thai green curry - a bag of stir fry veg, block of tofu diced up, coconut milk and thai green curry paste . 10min max cooking time and minimal prep!

Sweetcorn and kimchi fritters. We serve this with some chilli mayo and noodles. https://thefoodietakesflight.com/kimchi-sweet-corn-fritters/

This is lovely too. https://www.theguardian.com/food/2022/jun/18/meera-sodha-vegan-recipe-bulgur-pilaf-fennel-raisins-pine-nuts

This one which I have just made for dinner later.

From the Green Roasting Tin book. This is delicious. You'd need to add something for protein though

This one does have some red lentils but is so tasty and you can add more chilli/spices if you want to. Apologies for the huge blog post before the actual recipe

This is utterly delicious ottolenghi.co.uk/recipes/miso-and-peanut-butter-chickpea-salad

Also a roasted cauliflower thing on the same site, I think it has tahini dressing ottolenghi.co.uk/recipes/cauliflower-steaks-with-zahter

This is a firm favourite of both my (non-vegetarian) dc. It can be made vegan to if you swap out the cream. We have it with sourdough bread and butter.

Lentil cottage pie, you can use regular or vegan cheese on top!

Some of these look amazing, thank you!

@TheGreyRockess the pilaf looks great, that's kind of the thing I was hoping for, but happy to try other stuff too.

@timtam23 I'm good with lentils, it's not so much that I don't like beans/pulses, just that they aren't really part of my diet as yet.

Some sort of chickpea curry/spicy stew with coconut milk. Loads of recipes, but I use this one (but double all the spices)https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/tomato-chickpea-curry

This is delicious too. https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/lentil-sweet-potato-curry

Meera Sodha’s books are excellent sources of veggie recipes, as are the Bosh! books (vegan). And the websites of each.

Ooo - Ottolenghi’s confit of chickpeas is fab too. It’s a Saturday Kitchen recipe - if it’s not on his website it’ll be on theirs.

If you are a garlic lover…

Roast a bulb of garlic (whole cloves), sweet red peppers and cherry tomatoes in olive oil and mixed herbs, until soft and charred.
Boil your preferred pasta and season, add vegan ‘butter’. Mix in the veggies and add lots of fresh basil. Top with vegan cheese if you like it. It’s so simple but delicious. You will stink for a week afterwards, though

Look for Tinned Tomatoes blog, loads of good ones there. They are vegan but you can add dairy if you wish to substitute non dairy ingredients.

If it's the confit chickpea curry thing with chilli, that's delicious!

Another vote for something similar to the French lentils upthread - I do the same.kind of thing but without the mushrooms and it's so delicious. I always add good olive oil to serve, and sometimes parmesan and chopped parsley.

I thought of pilaf too but someone has beaten me too it on that too - Nigel Slater has a simple one with cardamom and butter that we make a lot.

I also love a tabbouleh - served with just hummus and bread, or falafel if you need a bit more bulk. Oh and coronation chickpeas!

This one - apparently I’ve got it saved as a favourite! https://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/tandoori_chickpeas_47491

I made this recently and it was incredible. Going to make it again this week!

With pulses I find that green or brown lentils better than red ones. Mung beans are good too.

@Rainbows89 what cream do you use in this please? It sounds lovely

I love a vege curry. No pulses required.
