The Green Roasting Tin: Vegan and Vegetarian One Dish Dinners (Rukmini’s Roasting Tin)

Product Information

This is probably my favourite dish in the book - roast potatoes with a spicy peanut dressing and green veg - what's not to like? The proportions were all off here and I am not sure how you slice a red cabbage into cubes and then separate the leaves and lay evenly in a roasting tray without overlap or mess. Apart from a quibble about ‘protein sources’ the structure of these few pages is really good and is a handy visual for thinking about your own recipes. And to make the book even more user-friendly, a beautifully illustrated infographic section is full of ideas for how readers can design their own contents for a roasting tin whether a warm salad, stew, tart or super grain tray. I'm very into this book on many levels, but mostly because it is such an easy, fun and cheap way to eat more vegetables.
