From the IACP award-winning author of Jikoni, a cookbook celebrating indulgence in vegetarian and vegan home cooking.
It's well-proven that a diet centring fruits, vegetables, beans, grains, and nuts is healthier for us and our planet, but talks of decreasing global meat and dairy intake have for too long been tied to narratives of culinary sacrifice.
Ravinder Bhogal, award-winning chef and self-described “half-woman, half-hummus,” knows better. In Comfort and Joy, she radically reclaims vegan and vegetarian cooking in all its abundance, with decadent, crave-able recipes that bring together crisp okra fries with curry leaf mayonnaise, earthy roasted beet salad with blood orange and creamy burrata, whipped feta with tomatoes confit, and so much more.
With Bhogal's creative, approachable, veg-centric recipes for home cooks, each recipe in Comfort and Joy is the key to a new culinary life where wellness and indulgence are allies, deep frying is vegetable baptism, and "the vegetarian option" is always the first choice.
