Vegetarian and Vegan Recipes Inspired by Tables Around the World
The Veg Table is my very first published cookbook; a collection of vegetarian and vegan recipes, inspired by my travels around the world.
You’ll discover deliciously fresh and nutritionally-balanced meals from the Mediterranean, Morocco, India, Mexico, Thailand, and the Middle East, plus some world street food recipe favourites of mine I could not resist including. Each and every recipe has been tried and tested by the thousands of people that attend my classes, parties, supper clubs and catered events every year.
I’m constantly inspired by the veg I grow in my allotment, so you’ll find hearty, seasonal ingredients and whole foods in every recipe. Most recipes can be adapted to be vegan, gluten or sugar-free. The Veg Table Cookbook is full of handy culinary tips and tricks, showcasing a range of cookery techniques I have honed over my 20+ years of being a chef.
The recipes in The Veg Table are designed for sharing. Fill your table with your loved ones and share the joy of delicious, wholesome food. Fresh, full of flavour, and inspired by regional cuisine, they add a variety of ways to make meat-free meals tempting and indulgent.

Falafels
There are so many falafel recipes out there it’s a bit overwhelming. I’ve tried many over the years only to be disappointed by the mushy texture. Most recipes call for tinned chickpeas but this recipe uses dried chickpeas that are soaked overnight in bicarbonate of...
Thai green curry with green jackfruit
Green jackfruit is a great vegetarian alternative in curry. It has a great texture and absorbs the full flavours in the sauce. It’s sold in Asian markets or online. Make sure that you are purchasing the young green jackfruit in brine, not ripe and yellow in syrup. Pan...
Coconut and orange blossom biscuits
At 4pm the streets of Marrakech flood with women and their daughters selling treats, and these coconut and orange blossom biscuits were my favourite!
Mexican wedding cakes
Mexican wedding cakes are actually biscuits and are an example of culinary influence from Spain. These little cookies are traditionally served at weddings.
Tarka Dhal
Tarka dhal has a base of lots of garlic, cumin seeds and amchoor powder. Amchoor powder is made from dried mangos and gives a gorgeous lemony taste to the dhal.
Aubergine and Lentil Moussaka
Aubergine and lentil moussaka is a hearty Mediterranean dish. I made this dish for my wedding years ago, so is a special recipe. Vegan version included.
Roasted Tomato Salsa
When tomatoes are out of season and you fancy salsa, try this one instead of fresh salsa. Roasting the tomatoes adds more flavour and a better texture.
Za’atar Flatbread
This recipe for Za’atar flatbread is a basic pitta with za’atar – a fragrant Middle Eastern spice mix – and olive oil. It’s just perfect to mop up everything in a mezze!
Roasted Plums with Honey and Thyme
Roasted plums create a gorgeous dessert made of fragrant herbs, tart plums and sweet syrup. Vegan version included in the full recipe.
Bruschetta
Bruschetta is a simple classic, but when done right it’s just perfect. Using sweet fresh tomatoes, fragrant basil, and garlic-kissed toasted bread, this recipe delivers.
Stuffed Tomatoes and Peppers
Stuffed tomatoes and peppers are a traditional Mediterranean recipe that are perfect for summery evenings, paired with a delicious and refreshing wine.
Greek Green Beans with Tomatoes
This Greek green beans recipe is a great way to use up the summer gluts of beans and can be served as a side dish or as part of a mezze.
