One thing I like as much as mothing is trying to recreate #takeaway as #fakeaway. We love Nepalese food and so, for #Vegan Wednesday (is that a thing?) I had a bash at some ghee-free Nepalese *style* dishes that we often order.

Made 4 #dinner dishes:

Split pea dal tadka, farsi takari (a kind of butternut squash stew), aloo methi potatoes and, of course, my easy peasy naan bread. Enough leftover to enjoy it all again tomorrow!
