I thought I’d share how I make my chickpea chuna as it’s slowly changed over the years.

I actually always hated fish before I… Continue reading Vegan Chickpea “Tuna” aka Chuna

Vegan Chicken Fried Rice
This vegan fried rice is a tasty combination of mock chicken, rice and vegetables. This time I’m using mock chicken I bought recently from an Asian supermarket.
