Whether you are vegan or not, this recipe book is amazing! The photos are works of art, and the recipes are delicious! Mirriam Sorrel is a fantastic cook and her endeavors to get compassionate cooking perfected is worth supporting! I love this book because the recipes show foods I want to try, they are presented in a very artistic way, and I love how easy they are to make. This is healthful, delicious, simple, and compassionate. If you love middle eastern fare you should definitely get this book. There is a lot of great cooking tips, instructions, and suggestions to make understanding easier (if cooking is not something you are an expert in, like me, I need explanations and they are provided in the beginning. Skip them if you don’t need them.) Mirriam is a very loving person and it shines through in her explanations and presentations.

I have been a fan of Miriam Sorrell for years. I own her first cookbook, Mouthwatering Vegan and have been relying on her recipes in my kitchen. I am a regular on her blog. She is a passionate advocate for animals and one of the most amazing creators of good food you will find anywhere! (Not to mention a truly lovely person.) So, when I discovered that she had a second book coming out, I quickly placed a pre-order with Amazon. As a passionate vegan cook myself, I have a few favorite authors who are always innovative and creative, and those are the cookbooks I reach for when I’m looking for something good to cook. Miriam is indeed one of these. My recipe library will always have anything she writes in it!
The day I received my copy of Yasou in the mail, I spent the rest of the afternoon reading it, and she once again did NOT disappoint! This book has more of a Mediterranean and Middle Eastern flair which honors that part of her heritage. The recipes follow the traditional techniques, and all of the recipes are fully vegan, and fully DELICIOUS!! The pictures make you want to eat the page. You absolutely MUST have this book in your cookbook library. You will find it will be one of those “go to” cookbooks that you rely on to always have a good outcome. Thanks once again, Miriam, for making me look good in the kitchen!! I’m a fan for life. You ROCK!!!

Oh my! I knew this book from Miriam Sorrell would be worth the wait. Greek and middle eastern fusion food. Tasty, ultra close-up shots of every dish, loads and loads of interesting recipes all printed on beautiful glossy paper. If you love the flavours of the Eastern Mediterranean,and you want to eat crueltyfree food, then this book is an absolute must for your collection. It’s a joy! Well worth the money, and would make a beautiful gift for any vegan cook.

If it is possible for a published book to literally slap you in the face with aromas …
I have never seen a more beautiful presentation of some of my favorite foods, and done with unique flair. Miriam Sorrell has added her own to each and every recipe. I read the whole thing through on the first day (I was mesmerized). I happen to have a well stocked pantry and will make every one of these … I just cannot decide which one first! Perhaps the Spanakopita Tart (recipe for plant-based Feta included). I’m in love.

As the title says, ‘A Magical Fusion of Greek & Middle Eastern Vegan Cuisine’
I am left Spellbound!
After following Miriams recipes on her Mouthwatering Vegan blog and devouring the recipes from her first cookbook, the anticipation of purchasing her second cookbook was indeed waiting for further culinary magic!Here, you will not only find the first in the world vegan fried egg which will ‘wow’ non vegans but also see how she has used minimum ingredients for this which are likely to be available in your vegan store cupboard!As a vegan chef myself, I once described Miriam as THE visionary vegan chef and I believe my expression and opinion to be spot on once again with Yasou.Her first book seduced us and made us salivate with out of this world recipes and once again she has raised the bar with further genius recipes.
The Sensual Runner Bean and Mushroom Stew is oh so flavoursome with varying textures and again, store cupboard ingredients with spices that ‘just do it!’
Before I became vegan I loved custard slices here in the UK and here we have a recipe for Galaktoboureko (Greek Custard Slice) oh my!I am adoring this easy to follow and colourful book and I simply can’t wait to try the Bean and Nut Scampi Balls, the Golden Cheezy Zucchini Fritters (my type of scrumptiousness) the Spanking good Spanakopita Tart and the Tomato Dolmasi.
A Magical Fusion of Greek & Middle Eastern Vegan Cuisine?
