ghoti_mhic_uaitSo, on wednesday I resumed cook book project. I used Nicola Graimes' Vegan Cooking.
Here's what happened when Kake did this book.
I, however, made Pilaff of Saffron and Pickled Walnuts with Warm Vegetable Salad and Peanut Sauce, followed by Pears with Star Anise and Ginger.
The Pilaff was *wonderful* and I shall certainly be making it again. I think the saffron didn;t add that much, so I might leave it out (or use turmeric) in future. The salad was OK, but the peanut sauce was too hot, and if I make it again I'll leave out the chili. The pears were nice, but not particularly special. Maybe if I'd turned the poaching sauce into chocolate sauce it would have worked better.
I do like the book rather a lot, though.
