Did you know, that ancient Chinese Religions (Taoism and Buddhism) promoted meat-free diets? And monks were often vegans (source). Maybe this is the reason why Chinese cuisine has so many meat alternatives to offer, like seitan, tofu… And there are various Chinese dishes with vegetables and seaweed, that are traditionally made vegan. I like Chinese […]

Chickpea Curry
Curry is one of the easiest dish to cook. You can make curry very fast (I saw recipe that takes just 5 min!) in big amounts. This is very handy for a big family, I think. I learned to cook curry from my sister, who has 2 children. Oh, she cooks amazing curry! Here I […]
Spread for bread
I want to share with you one idea, what you could do with remaining press cake after you make home-made almond milk. This is a very easy recipe of spread for bread, that I really like. This portion is very small, however, you can collect your almond press cake and store it in the freezer, […]
Almond Milk in 10 minutes
I like to add plant-based milk to my hot drinks (tea, coffee, cocoa). Soya milk is my favourite, almond milk – second favourite. However, it is not that easy to make tasty home-made soya milk: I had several attempts, it took me a lot of effort, and still I like factory-made better. Quite different situation […]
Layer Caramel Cake
Today is our anniversary, and to celebrate, I made a Caramel Layer Cake. I’m proud to say this recipe is entirely my own creation. As a child, my favorite layer cake was Medovik, a delightfully sweet Russian honey cake. This cake holds a special place in my heart for its gingerbread-like layers and rich, thick […]
Stuffed Bell Peppers
Stuffed peppers have always been my favourite dish. And in fact, it was never important what they were stuffed with. Here is my experimental recipe, which turned out to be very successful. However, I did not calculate the proportions precisely, and made too much filling. So as a result I “killed two birds with one […]
IKEA Veggie Balls (homemade)
I remember I first tried this veggie balls in IKEA in Berlin about 4 years ago. I was in a travel, visiting my vegan sister there. It was such a nice treat after shopping! I consider this meal as one of the best, in one line with falafel! Recently I found several recipes of Veggie […]
Vegan Lasagna
If you have an oven, it would be a mistake not to try this recipe! This Lasagne is my first experience, but it turned out really tasty! The dish looks very appetizing and I would say – it’s a perfect choice for a special occasion. Ingredients Lasagna (noodle sheets) Tomato and cheese sauce (see below) […]
Budapest – vegan-friendly city (Day 2)
This is a continuation of my story about our trip to Budapest. Our trip took place in April 2018 and lasted for two weeks. We were lucky to visit Hungarian village Tapolca, to spend a few days in Vienna and to rest in beautiful Austrian village Hallstatt. We planned five days for Budapest. However, notes […]
Budapest – vegan-friendly place (Day 1)
Budapest… What a wonderful city! Interesting architecture, nice living tempo, beautiful squares, good choice of restaurants, friendly people, romantic atmosphere, trams and gorgeous Danube! We had a saturated trip this April: Budapest – Tapolca – Vienna – Hallstatt – Vienna – Budapest. All in all 14 days, and 5 of those were dedicated to Budapest. […]
