Vegan MoFo and Mango Mojo

Posted by Ryann On October - 2 - 2012

Think I’ll be able to rhyme-title all my posts this month? Today’s MoFo is brought to you in part by a Victoria institution: Rebar Modern Food. Chances are if you are even slightly veggie oriented you have mad a point to hit this adorable restaurant nestled in what used to be a bank vault in [...]

Orange Thai Curry

Posted by Ryann On October - 4 - 2011

Welcome to autumn, my friends. I myself don’t care for it much. Don’t like the dampness, the early-onset darkness or the shameless manner in which the foliage starts shedding its clothing. I take no pleasure in jumping through piles of crunchy leaves and maybe that’s just me, but the one thing I can’t complain about [...]

Coconut Greens and Rice

Posted by Ryann On May - 17 - 2011

Perhaps it’s the sunny weather or my increasingly alarming Sriracha addiction, but I am all about fresh, Asian inspired flavours lately. Lot’s of people don’t post stirfry recipes. Stirfries are very subjective: personal, intimate, cherished creations that are so catered to the cook’s very tastebuds that it is almost nerve wracking to let the public [...]

Mexican Black Bean Soup

Posted by Ryann On May - 13 - 2011

All hail the pressure cooker! Once again our favourite handy-dandy appliance delivers timely tastiness to your table with flavours so complex, you’ll think this soup’s been simmering since Cinco de Mayo. I know I have professed my undying love for pressure cookers on numerous occasions, but it’s not all fantastic foods and easy living: I [...]

Asian-Style Panko Crusted Baked Tofu

Posted by Ryann On April - 27 - 2011

Earlier this month, I saw a recipe on Vegan Dad that looked very intriguing: Golden Crispy Tofu. I tend to shy away from serving tofu since my manfriend gets a little skittish around cliché vegan food and fabricated protein sources, but this looked so crunchy and familiar that I figured I could trick him into [...]

Sriracha and Sesame Crusted Tempeh

Posted by Ryann On April - 12 - 2011

Veganizing The Sriracha Cookbook, Volume 3.0 It’s that time again. Time to consult that beacon of all that is garlic-spice-liscious and make it vegan. I thought I might as well keep chipping away the “hunk of protein” section of the book. And, as I very recently procured a giant sack of black sesame seeds, it [...]

Burn the Sick Out Soup

Posted by Ryann On April - 7 - 2011

I am sick. So, achy, chest cold-y, wretchy, fever-y, chill-y, gross-y yuck sick. But, you know what? I’m craftier than some stupid invasive infection! I’m gonna burn the mutha out. Garlic, ginger, chillies, Sriracha–burn, burn, you’re gonna burn, little buggies! Yet, despite the multitude of spicy ingredients, this soup is more warming than scorching (although, [...]
