Brazilian Açaí Power Bowl – A Rainbow of Fruits, Oats & Flaxseeds

Brazil – A Land of Tropical Fruits and Culinary DiversityBrazil is the largest country in South America, famous for its extraordinary landscapes, from the Amazon rainforest to its beautiful Atlantic coastline. Its rich culinary heritage reflects Indigenous Brazilian, African, Portuguese and other cultural influences. Tropical fruits play an important role in many regional food traditions, with açaí holding a particularly special place in the Amazon region. For generations, local communities have harvested and enjoyed the dark-purple fruit of the açaí palm, making it an important part of northern Brazil's food culture. What Is an Açaí Bowl?An açaí bowl is a thick, chilled preparation made from the deep-purple pulp of the açaí palm fruit. Traditionally, açaí has been enjoyed in northern Brazil in both savoury and unsweetened preparations, often accompanied by local staples such as manioc flour. The sweet, fruit-topped açaí bowls popular in other parts of Brazil and internationally are a more modern interpretation. My Via Veggie Vegan version combines suitable dried, pitted açaí fruit pieces with creamy unsweetened soy yoghurt, then adds colourful rows of blueberries, redcurrants, mango, kiwi, rolled oats and ground flaxseeds. The result is a vibrant, nourishing, Brazilian-inspired rainbow breakfast that brings a little tropical sunshine to the table.

Vegan Trinxat with Savoy Cabbage, Crispy Potato Crust & Halloween Garlic Teeth

Andorra – A Tiny Mountain Country with Hearty Culinary TraditionsNestled high in the Pyrenees between France and Spain, Andorra is one of Europe's smallest countries. Its mountain cuisine reflects centuries of Catalan influence, cold winters and a love of simple, nourishing ingredients. Potatoes, cabbage, beans and rustic vegetable dishes have long been staples of traditional Andorran cooking. What Is Trinxat?Trinxat is one of the best-known traditional dishes of Andorra and the Catalan Pyrenees. Its name comes from the Catalan word meaning chopped or mashed. Traditionally prepared with potatoes, winter cabbage and pork fat or bacon, the mixture is pressed into a thick, tortilla-like cake and pan-fried until beautifully golden. The result is a wonderful contrast between a crispy exterior and a soft, comforting centre. This vegan version replaces the bacon with plant-based ham, uses aromatic mustard oil and finishes in the oven rather than the frying pan.
