THIS week’s Cornish Times recipe is for Vegan Fennel and Parsnip Tarka Dal and comes from food blogger and recipe writer Sasha Gill.
Sasha, 22, a medicine student at Oxford University who was born in Singapore, has made it her mission to conjure up vegan alternatives to her Asian favourites.
It comes from her vegan Asian cookbook entitled Jackfruit and Blue Ginger.
She says of this dish: ‘It was a weekly staple when I was growing up... This is a version I first made when I was homesick and in desperate need of a winter treat. Parsnip and fennel are perhaps unusual additions to a dal, but together they give it an almost herby, anise-like twang.’
