Book Description
A mouthwatering collection of recipes made famous by the renowned Cranks Restaurants chain.
About the Author
Cranks was the UK's first ever vegetarian restaurant, opening on 21st June 1961. With a commitment to a healthy, soul-satisfying diet, their vegetarian ideals have not changed over the course of publishing six recipe books. The Cranks restaurant has now moved from London's Carnaby Street to the calmer surroundings of The Cider Press Centre near Totnes in Devon.

This book, like a number of others of its type does not use photo imagery but brief descriptions and tips followed by basic instructions. It is the sort of recipe book where you will feel free to adapt and modify recipes. Definitely the type of cook book that gets most use in our house.

This is a bit of an 80's style book in that it is mostly recipes with a select collection of photographs in the middle....but don't let that put you off! Especially as this also means that it's priced as a paperback not a lavishly illustrated coffee table book.
This is my vegetarian bible.
I have had a copy since it was published in 1992, then loaned my copy out and had to buy a replacement. Will soon have to get another as this is suffering from overuse!
There are soups, starters, salads and savouries, plus a large section on desserts, cakes and biscuits.
Imagine your favourite vegetarian restaurant in your own house!
Don't miss Cranks nut roast and the mushroom pate, though there are many others I could recommend.
I have several Cranks recipe books, but this is the opne I use most often.

Full of imaginative and easy to prepare veggie recipes.
Unlike like other veggie cook books, doesn't rely on textured soy protein as a meat replacement in every recipe. Read more
