New Book
Jackie Kearney has brought new life to healthy, plant-based cooking in this exciting follow-up to her award-winning Vegan Street Food. The book is inspired by the growing wellness culture in Asia as well as the glorious range of street food – from street hawkers, roadside cafés, food halls and more – which brings people from all walks of life together. Jackie takes us on a delicious journey from India to Indonesia, via Sri Lanka, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam and Malaysia, enjoying classic dishes and crowd-pleasers we might already be familiar with, such as ‘Massaman Curry in a Hurry’, ‘Faster Laksa’ and ‘Paradise Bounty Bars’, all made a little healthier. The book also features many less well known regional specialities, such as ‘Banh Trang Nuong’ (Vietnamese rice paper pizza), ‘Pepes Tahu’ (Javanese tofu in banana leaves) and ‘Khao Sen’ (Thai tomato-braised rice noodles with porcini mushrooms). Combined with stories and anecdotes from the road, family photos and fascinating local information that transport the reader to the places and foods they fell in love with, this exciting book celebrates the best of vegan street food, whilst harnessing the most nutritious produce and ingredients
Vegan Street Food
Foodie travels from India to Indonesia.
Winner of the Best Cook Book Award in the PETA UK Vegan Food Awards 2016.
Jackie and her family ate their way around Asia, sampling streetfood and jotting menu ideas on the back of napkins. Inspired by the food cultures she embraced on her travels, Jackie has brought new life to healthy, meat- and dairy-free food, inspired by the sheer quantity of vegan food on offer in Asia.
Dotted with personal anecdotes from her travels, family photos and fascinating local information, Jackie takes us from India to Indonesia on a journey of tastes and textures, via Sri Lanka, Thailand, Vietnam, Laos and Malaysia. Recipes includes classic dishes that we might be already familiar with, such as Simple Sri Lankan Dal or Cauliflower and Kale Pakora, as well as regional specialties such as Oothapam (vegetable crumpets from South India) or Tahu Campur (Javanese fried tofu with cassava cakes). Street food is a central part of life in Asia. It brings families and communities together from breakfast to dinner, through all the scrumptious snacks along the way.
With this book, you can bring this inspirational approach to feeding your family into your own kitchen, whipping up flavorful and wholesome bites. Celebrate vegan food in all its glory, without compromising on flavor or protein, or trying to makes substitutions for meat or fish. That is the beauty of this collection of Asian streetfood—it is simply delicious, and it just so happens to be vegan
My Vegan Travels
Comfort food inspired by adventure
Shortlisted for an Edward Stanford Travel Writing Award, Best Cook Book, 2017
75 satisfying plant-based recipes for comfort food from around the world. A food-lover and keen traveller, Jackie Kearney became a favourite MasterChef UK finalist in 2011 thanks to her creative approach to vegetarian and vegan cooking that took inspiration from all over the world. However, if there is one thing that she loves to cook most, it is those comfort food classics that can satisfy any hunger pangs—and in this collection of vegan recipes, she shows how easy it is to do that as part of a plant-based diet. She begins with flavors from her childhood in No Place Like Home, featuring recipes such as Root Vegetable Rosti with Home-made Beans and Smoky Tempeh, and Savoy-wrapped Quinoa Roast. European Summers follows with a selection of relaxed dishes like Campfire Risotto with Asparagus and Lemon, French Onion Soup with Cashew Cheese Croutons, and Roasted Eggplant Lasagne with Puy Lentils. Jackie is renowned for her love of Asian flavors, so the next chapter, Asian Comfort, is where her passion really shines. Try Beet and Watercress Samosas with Pineapple Chutney, Shami Kebab served in a fluffy white naan, or the classic South-east Asian soup Singaporean Laksa. For dessert, a Chai-spiced Rice Pudding with Ginger Cookies is the perfect winter warmer. Then, inspiration comes from across the USA with a vegan take on the classic NYC deli sandwich—Reuben’s Honestly—and Tevo’s Texan Scramble Breakfast Burrito, as well as those best-loved sweet treats such as the Aint’ No Vooddoo Rasberry Chai Donuts. With a guide to the vegan storecupboard and some basic recipes for Easy Vegan Mayo, Cashew Cream, Flax Eggs, and Almond Ricotta, this is the essential book for all those looking for deliciously satisfying plant-based food.
Plant Based Burgers
And other vegan recipes for Dogs, Subs, Wings and more
Vegan fast-food is here to stay and never tasted so good with these stunningly inventive recipes for plant-based burgers, dogs, subs, wings and much more! While traditional butchers might be disappearing from the high street there’s a new breed ready to slice a different kind of meat – made from plants! So-called ‘vegetarian butchers’ are creating food that mimics meat and offering convincing substitutes that look, feel and even taste like the real thing. Mock meat, of course, is nothing new. Burger patties made from soy-based protein and wheat gluten have been around since the 1960s but now vegetables, nuts, pulses and grains are in on the act and taking vegan substitutes for all our fast food favourites to a whole new level! But why buy over-processed and over-packaged meat-free products from supermarkets when you can make healthier, cheaper and equally delicious meat-free fast fixes at home? Prepare to be wowed by recipes for Easiest Vegan Burger Recipe Ever with Beet Ketchup, Hell Yeah Chilli Dogs, Baby Got No Beef Burrito, KFC-style Chkn Burger and even Tofish & Chips. Plant-Based Burgers is a fantastic new edition of the previously published Vegan Mock Meat Revolution.
