The Chip Butty Vegan

Here is how Maz introduced his work to Active:

My name is Maz and I'm one of the guys from the Cowley club in sunny Brighton.  I'm writing to you to tell you about a new vegan cookbook I've written called The Chip Butty Vegan. It is aimed at new vegans and veggies with the idea of keeping them on the path they've choosen. The recipes are very simple, easy to follow, and consist of food that the average meat eater would recognise. I remember when I turned vegan and went out and bought a load of cookery books and they had ingredients I didn't recognise. It was a real culture shock but luckily I'm very stubborn! Nothing too freaky in this cook book. No lentils (except for the dhal), no tahini, etc. You could serve the dishes to yer grandma and she wouldn't know the difference! I've been a vegan for over 25 years and until recently was a fully qualified chef but am now retired due to illness.

Some of the main dishes include:

Pizza
Spaghetti Bolognese
Lasagna Verde
Chili Con Mazi
Vegan Chasseur
Stir Fry Sauce
Italian Bake
Creamed Mushrooms
Mushroom Stroganoff
Sausage Casserole
Maz’s Winter Stew
Savory Mince Crumble
Cottage Pie
Tofu in White Wine Sauce
Cajun Stew
Veggie Curry
Maz’s Dhal

Plus, there are also recipes for sauces, snacks and desserts.
