And my vegan japaneasy arrived yesterday. What a beautiful book. Which ramen recipe did you do @IJumpedAboardAPirateShip?

@ppeatfruit it’s a brand that I don’t think is available in the U.K. - you guys have beyond now right? It’s basically the same thing but doesn’t have that “beyond meat” taste. I love the beyond sausages but am over their burgers and mince, impossible was much better. I rarely buy subs but it was nice for a change

Def do the courgette and aubergine one @PartTimeDomesticGoddess that’s the one I was raving about. I need to try my pickled mushrooms today!

B: Tofu sammich
D: Jamie Oliver cottage pie with broccoli and sweetcorn and two piece of THIS

(which is sticky toffee apple cake it was absolutely incredible)

Thanks @IJumpedAboardAPirateShip. I might have to eat it 2 days in a row as I'm unlikely to get courgette and aubergine past 2 of the household lol

@Hangingover that looks incredible. Do you have a recipe to share? And did you eat it warm or cooled? With or without custard? More detail needed

So you make the the cake from this recipe (ignore the topping and cream bit) then while it's cooking melt together a tablespoon vegan butter, about two tablespoons of brown sugar and a table spoon of apple sauce (it has to be the blended/purree kind not the fancy sort with lumps in so go for a cheap one). Stir it a lot so it doesn't burn and take off stove when it's bubbled, leave to cool for five mins them add a good spoon of the thick fatty cream at the top of a can of coconut milk and stir to combine. When cake is cooling (I set mine on the rack from a grillpan so there was a pan underneath to catch) prick cake all over with a toothpick and smother the sauce over it. Chop into slices and serve warm with a fork. I swear it's like sticky toffee pudding! I bet a dollop of vegan ice cream would be delightful with it.
