Welcome to The Accidental Chef. The goal here is to cook according to the Great British seasons and help reduce the environmental impact of the food we consume. This recipe blog features loads of sustainable recipes, largely vegetarian and vegan except for where meat and fish are sustainably farmed or hunted.
I know you’re not meant to blow your own trumpet, and remain humble, but HOLY MOLY this Satay Sweet Potato Curry ticks some damn boxes. It’s sweet and savoury, it’s spicy AND not, it’s ready in just 30 minutes AND it’s vegan. Come on, let me have this one.
A truly seasonal recipe using the acorn squash, a cute little winter variety, stuffed with an easy vegan chilli. You can adapt for Butternut Squash though if that’s what you have available.
A super simple soup, well-executed, is a thing to behold, and this swede soup is no different. This soup has a whack of heat to it that’ll warm even the coldest of days.
These simple pan roast swede steaks show just how versatile this awesome root vegetable is! Served up with a super simple butter bean puree and a vegan version of my “Everything Steak Sauce”
You thought the Swede was unglamorous huh? Well, think again cause this root vegetable is ready for it’s starring role, and here are 7 recipes to prove it.
This pie reminds me of a PROPER pub pie, and I’m about that life! Serve with loads of mash, honey roasted carrots and an additional post of gravy and we’re good to go.
These quick & easy Honey Roast Carrots add a little more spark to the Sunday lunch plate, so much so you’ll never boil a carrot again!
Prepare ahead, slow cooker, comfort food season has arrived and this Slow Cooker Chicken Casserole should be an autumn/ winter staple in your household during this season.
Cauliflower Cheese is GOOD, but this Cauliflower & Broccoli Cheese is NEXT LEVEL. Crispy, cheesy and creamy – plus in addition to being a bit bad for you, it’s also a bit good for you too.
Creamy, peppery and rich, this Prawn Linguine makes an impressive low-key dinner party dish but can double up as an easy midweek meal. That’s pretty darn good, eh?
Crunchy, cheesy and intensely savoury this Aubergine Lasagne with lentils & walnuts is an attractive alternative to the traditional meat-laden lasagne. Complete with a crunchy golden mozzarella topping.
Healthy eating doesn’t have to be expensive, or time consuming, this Chickpea + Spinach Curry is proof of that – costing less than £1 per portion.
I’d love to send out awesome, seasonal recipes to your inbox every week! There will be extras too – reviews of the UK’s fruit and vegetable subscription boxes, cool kitchen gadgets I’ve found and music to bop along too whilst you cook. Too good to miss, right?
