An incredibly exciting, fresh modern twist on authentic flavours I love with bold clever and creative plays on veg!

But there’s no need to unpick the various influences behind each recipe: what you need to know is that her food is just gorgeous! Denai is a Jamaican chef who loves to make vegan food and in ¬† Plentiful ¬†she debunks this taboo about Jamaican food. I just HAVE to read the entire book before I can decide which one of these delectable dishes I will make.

It was so hard to decide which of all the recipes in this wonderful book to share with you today, but inspired by my love of the Thai version, Yum Khao Tod (I go regularly to Supawan Thai in King’s Cross for its divine iteration of it) I plumped happily for her Crispy Rice Salad with Crunchy Green Vegetables and Salted Cashews. With this book, she shows how exciting, diverse, and vibrant vegan flavours and Jamaican food truly are. Jamaican food is often misrepresented, simplified and reduced to being really spicy – and MEAT heavy.In this first-of-its-kind book, Denai Moore pays homage to flavours and authentic dishes from her Jamaican roots whilst firmly planting them within a modern-day context.

As a recipe developer, Denai has written for the Guardian , and has held cooking demonstrations for Time Out . This book is for everyone whether you are familiar with Jamaican food or vegan cooking or not - lots to keep you interested and well fed.And may I add that I purchased another one to give to someone who truly appreciates flavorful and well seasoned food.
