No Bake Berry Tart

A cookie base made from Oreo and Kerrygold butter, a rich filling from soaked cashew nuts, acai powder, coconut and blueberries sweetened with a little maple syrup. Berry sauce and garnish can be left out if you just can't be bothered. This (almost) raw berry tart will win over even the sceptics. Easy, delicious and it's vegan, if that's important to you. If you don't have agar agar, then use 1-2 teaspoons of chia seeds to thicken the sauce.

Brotgewürz is a variety of bread spice mixtures often used in German bread making. It usually contains anise, caraway, fennel and corainder seeds, with the other additions or changes in amounts depending on tradition, taste, and the type of bread. If you can't find it, just grind 2 tablespoons of each anise, caraway, fennel and corainder seeds in a coffee grinder or with a mortar and pestle.
Spicy Green Falafel with Tahini Sauce

Crispy on the outside, soft and tender inside and spiked with spices, these green falafels can be eaten as a snack, with a salad or wrapped in warm pita bread. Falafel are traditionally made in the Middle East from dried chickpeas or/and broad beans but this recipe starts with a tin of drained chickpeas for speed.
Use chickpea flour to coat your hands when shaping your falafels or with a bowl of water on hand to keep your hands wet. Either technique works well to prevent your hands from becoming sticky with the falafel mixture.

Anchoïade is a classic Provençale sauce made with tinned anchovies, olive oil, red wine vinegar and garlic. This version, adapted from Sitka Seafood, includes toasted almonds, flat parsley and chillie flakes, but its essence remains the same. Provençale anchovy sauce goes splendidly with a selection of vegetables, both raw and blanched, and seafood. It's also great on bread or as a salad dressing.
