Cassava and Orange Peel Curry Cassava and Orange Peel Curry is a rich tart recipe using orange peel, which is ordinarily discarded.  What I love about this dish is its vibrant colour.

What to do next

My recipes are featured in vegan speciality publications: Nourished, Vegan Life, Plant Based and Vegan, Food and Living.

Order my first self-published book, “Essence: The Beginner’s Guide to Veganism” part of the three-part Circle of Food series. My second book “Presence: The Ascending Vegan” – which explores how to maintain a vegan practice is out in 2027 – I have compiled all the chapters including recipes.

Going strong since 2013.

Love.

Ingredients

  • 50g sunflower seeds

  • 2 oranges
  • 1tsp harissa paste (optional)

  4. In a frying pan place the turmeric with the olive oil to form a sauce. Cook over a low heat for three or four minutes. Add the shallots with the coriander seed and sauté until the coriander seeds start to golden. Add to the orange peel and cassava mixture.
  5. Drain the seeds and add to the mixture too. Add the orange juice too to the mixture. Roughly mix.
