Hits 16704 | Last Modified I recently drank a 12-year-old bottle of this and it was fantastic - a cross between a liqueur and sherry.

He said it was good, but I have no idea if it is or not. Misc Oven-free 'Pizza' Hits 1529 | Last Modified If you don't have an oven, this pan-cooked alternative is worth a try. It would be vegan, but the egg white really lifts the texture so it doesn't feel like you're eating simply fried flour with cheese on the top...! It isn't exactly like a pizza, but it is good and filling and easy. You can load up the toppings, of course, like a normal pizza. Article  Paneer Tikka Masala BBQ Skewers

This is vegetarian and vegan too, but read your paste ingredients carefully. Takes 30 mins, serves 2-3. Article  Salt and Pepper Crackers
Hits 1498 | Last Modified These are based on a traditional Indian recipe for crackers that are deep fried and last for several weeks. This is essentially the same except I bake them in the oven instead. They are a good snack and very quick and easy to make. Article  Seaweed Soup

Hits 3376 | Last Modified This is a traditional Shropshire Wassail drink that has been adapted for summer-time sipping. Basically we remove all the egg and cream from the thing, don't bother with the 10 baked apples and instead chill it and serve with ice. It's very refreshing in the sun! If you find it too bitter, then add more honey or sugar, likewise, if using sweet cider, then use less. Article  Vegetarian Cooking

Hits 3116 | Last Modified A very rich and comforting stew for those long winter months. I like it made just like this – with butter instead of oil, thick and rich. You can use half the amount of corn flour if you don’t like it that thick, and oil if you like. Takes about 2 hours cooking, 15-20 mins prep time. Serves about 4.
