Serving nut roasts in cabbage leaves sounds quite fancy. If you can get hold of violife or biolife or daiya cheese I would recommend you have a go but not all vegan cheeses are created equal so be prepared to have another go if the first one you try is not great. I think it is also a bit of an aquired taste though violife and daiya are pretty good.Johanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-864743185273578282015-12-28T22:25:01.781+11:002015-12-28T22:25:01.781+11:00Thanks shaheen - what a shame that you and your hu...Thanks shaheen - what a shame that you and your husband do not agree on roasts.

I love that they are gluten free too.

I've been cooking (and enjoying other people's!) for years, but I find sometimes they have a bit of a bad rap, so I call them by some other made up name (smokey tofu bake or some such) and they seem to go down well. I love the idea of apricot puree in there. I think I'd be tempted to grab a spoon and chow down on the glaze on its own!Joeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17066424084187434409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-68556854866777293512015-12-23T07:44:19.833+11:002015-12-23T07:44:19.833+11:00Yum - this sounds good.

I went through a phase of serving individual nut roasts wrapped in cabbage leaves which looked rather good, but it was a bit fiddly. I love the name Bed and Broccoli and I like the idea of using apricot puree too.

I a...Johanna, my you have been cooking up a storm. I agree with you about most nutloafs being fragile and a tendency to collapse, the ones i have made in the past have been good sturdy one. I do love a good nutroast but my husband is not that keen on them, He goes for the Quorn roast and I am not overly keen on them, so we may both have to compromise this year. I've heard of Bed and Broccoli and wondered if you'd recommend it for my bookshelf - e mail me with you honest opinion, its unlikely that I will find it at my library here and sometimes veggie books from overseas are a lot more creative than those I am stumbling across in the UK.
