Answers:
Potage de Garbanzosy Espinaca
Ingredients:
200g dried chickpeas
1 carrot, chopped
1 stick of celery, chopped
2 medium onions, chopped
large bunch of spinach, washed and chopped
1 large beef tomato
6 cloves garlic, chopped
1 bayleaf
1 tbs paprika
1 tsp sugar
salt
olive oil
Method:
Soak the chickpeas for eight hours, or overnight, in plenty of cold water.
Place the chickpeas, carrot, celery, half of the chopped onion, and the bayleaf, in a large pan. Cover with cold water, bring to the boil, and boil hard for ten minutes. Lower the heat, and simmer for one hour, or until the chickpeas are soft.
Fry the rest of the onion in a little olive oil, until softened, then add the garlic. Peel the tomato, by dropping in boiling water, then straight into cold water, which helps to loosen the skin. Chop, and add to the cooking onion and garlic, along with the paprika and sugar, and a pinch of salt. Once heated through, lower the heat, cover, and cook gently for ten minutes, stirring frequently (you may need to add a little water to prevent sticking).
At the same time, add the spinach to the chickpea pan. When the onion/tomato mixture has cooked for ten minutes, add to the chickpeas. Check the seasoning, and serve with warm chunks of bread.
Sweet potatoes with spicy black bean chili
Sweet potatoes for two people.
One can black beans.
One can Mexican seasoned stewed tomatoes.
Bake or nuke sweet potatoes until soft. While they're cooking, simmerblack beans and tomatoes together untill the mixture gets a littlethicker (about 10 minutes). Open up the sweet potatoes, mash slightlywith a fork, put the bean and tomato mixture on top. Eat.
If you're ambitious you can saute some green pepper in oil before addingthe canned stuff, and you can put some tofutti sour cream and cilantroon top.

slice a big fat cow open and cut out a big slab of meat, then toss it on the grill but don't cook it too long because the bloodier the meat is the better it tastes.

Try adding a bit of mesquite to the barbecue before grilling your vegan to improve the flavour, and be sure to marinade your vegan for days first as they can be a bit tough and stringy otherwise.

Pizza
This pizza is so tasty that you will not miss the cheese!
Ingredients:
for the base:
500g./1 lb./3 cups plain flour, white or wholemeal
1 packet of easy blend dried yeast
200 ml./1 cup of warm water but keep adding until you get a good dough
topping:
1 tin chopped tomatoes (approx. 400g/14oz.)
2 tablespoons dried mixed herbs
2 tablespoons olive or sunflower oil
salt and pepper to taste
1 small tin of mushrooms or/and sweetcorn (optional)
sesame seeds for sprinkling on top
Mix the flour with the yeast and add the water gradually. Mix well (with your hands is best) and then knead for a couple of minutes until the dough is fairly smooth. Place on a large greased baking tray and flatten into desired shape (ie. - circle). Leave in a warm place while you prepare the topping: Mix together the tomatoes, herbs, oil and seasoning in a bowl and then spread over the pizza base. If using the mushrooms/sweetcorn - coat them in a little olive oil and arrange on the top of the pizza. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and bake at 200 C/400 F for 15 to 20 minutes until ready.
Variations - obviously you can add whatever toppings you like to the basic tomato mixture - olives, vegan 'cheeses', pineapple chunks, vegan meat substitutes etc. You can also vary the herbs used, add garlic and onion or add herbs or seeds to the base. If you want a softer base you can leave the dough to rise for half an hour before adding the toppings but we find it great without doing that.
Melitzanes Imam
This is a great Greek/Turkish aubergine (eggplant) dish flavored with cinnamon. Delicious on its own or with rice or couscous.
INGREDIENTS:
1 eggplant
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 medium onion, chopped
1 tablespoon minced garlic, or to taste
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, or to taste
3 tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Slice the eggplant in half lengthwise, and hollow out the halves leaving about a 1 centimeter shell. Set the flesh from the insides aside for later use. Place the shells on a baking tray, and drizzle with a little olive oil.
Bake for about 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until soft.
While those are baking, chop the leftover eggplant into small pieces. Heat about 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic; cook and stir for a few minutes. Add the chopped eggplant; cook and stir until tender. Mix in the tomatoes and tomato paste until well blended. Simmer over low heat until the halves in the oven are ready.
Remove the baked eggplant shells from the oven, and spoon in the tomato and eggplant mixture. Sprinkle a little cinnamon over the top of each one, and return them to the oven. Bake for another 30 minutes or so.

2 cups flour
1 tsp yeast
1 tsp saffron powder

Method:
Combine flour, salt, saffron and geera in a small bowl. Add warm water to sugar and yeast, allow to stand for 5 minutes. Add yeast mixture to dry ingredients and add water to make a light dough. Mix well and cover with a damp cloth. Let dough rise for 1 ½ hours. Drop mixture by tablespoon onto a lightly floured surface. Using slightly damp or lightly floured hands flatten or pat dough into small circular shapes. Deep fry until edges are golden brown. Serve two bhara (hence the name Doubles*) hot with cooked channa and pepper sauce. Enjoy!
