The Great British Vegan has EVERY British comfort dish you can imagine, turned vegan. I'm in love with this book the recipes are so yummy and fairly easy to execute. The Tofish with a sheet of nori is pure genius. I loved every photo in this book and can't wait to try every recipe.

The name says it all. It is literally the most British cookbook - but the vegan version.
Its pros are also its cons, so it just depends what you are looking for.
This contains pretty much EVERY typical British recipe on the planet as a vegan alternative. From bacon to haggis, it's all there. Now this begs the question of why we need an exact replica of meat but if you want to recreate all the meals or if you want to show your friends and family (or yourself) that vegans don't just eat salads and tofu, then this is the book for you. It is also great for family events if you want to contribute a tradional dish.
So it does exactly what it says on the tin, and it does it well. And it has a great introduction, explaining how to "swap" products for their vegan alternative.
If however you are after interesting new vegan ideas, as this is very much focused on veganising what already exists. For me personally, it's too close to meat and I don't like feeling like everything is being replaced. I like meals that stand for themselves, but then, this is the Great British Vegan.

I was provided with an advance copy of this book through NetGalley, in exchange for an honest review.

I've been Vegan for over a year now and while I enjoy experimenting with new dishes sometimes nothing hits the spot like something cosy and familiar. That's where Great British Vegan comes in. Aimee Ryan has put together a book full of nostalgic British dishes - from pub grub to afternoon tea. The recipes are nicely laid out with simple instructions. I'm excited to try out some of these recipes on family and friends, especially those who are nervous to try new and/or Vegan foods.

I'll update this review once I've tried a good selection of the recipes but so far I'm excited!

This book is a joyful cookbook that is perfect for fans of GREAT BRITISH BAKE OFF, is a Brit or Anglophile, or just wants to up their vegan baking game. With everything from vegan coconut whipped creme to a vegan take on a Wellington or Bakewell, there is a good variety and mix of easy weeknight recipes to fun, festive challenges. It may not be perfect for a novice baker who is using this to get into the kitchen for the first time but it is very approachable and has a wide range of easy to more involved bakes.

As a vegetarian most of my food includes dairy in some form or other, usually far too much cheese...! This book has some great ideas for meals which are interesting and filling enough without needing to add dairy - there are new recipes I haven’t tried before (I’m looking forward to trying the pumpkin, apple and ginger soup) and others where there are easy replacements for the animal products typically included. A lot of vegan recipes I’ve seen before have long lists of rare ingredients to replace the meat or dairy, whereas these recipes are very user-friendly - there’s also a very handy guide showing what works well as replacements for various non-vegan products.

Great photos and colours, which I always look for in my recipe books to make me more likely to cook the recipes!

With thanks to NetGalley and White Lion Publishing for an advance copy of the book in exchange for an honest review.

The British are very self-deprecating about their cuisine, but I love British comfort food. I received a digital ARC of this book and decided to order a physical copy because so many of the recipes sounded delish!

I look forward to vegan bangers and mash, fish and chips, coronation chickpeas and more!

This book looks great. There are lots of simple and different vegan recipes here. The book is well presented with lovely images. So far I’ve only made the vegan breakfast sausages - they were delicious.

This is a delightful book for vegans who miss British dishes or who want to experience them for the first time. My best friend it from England and my kids and I often spend weeks at a time at her family's Nebraska home (pre-covid), so anything British automatically makes me sentimental. I usually do all the cooking when I visit and I honestly never craved British food, but this book made me want to make a ton of recipes. Fans of the Great British Bake-Off will recognize the names of many of them. It's fairly wheat-heavy and won't work for my current dietary needs, but I highly recommend it for vegans and vegetarians (British or not) who want to experiment with wonderful sounding treats of all kinds. It would also make a fun library book for homeschooling families who like to cook their ways around the world.

I read a temporary digital ARC of this book for review.

This book is incredible! A perfect collection of recipes for any fan of classic UK meals and pub grub. It included plant-based recipes for all the British staple meals. The writing is accessible, and the book includes lists of frequent substitutions and what fruits and vegetables are in season when. The recipes are broken down into easily accomplishable steps, making even the most labor intensive meals seem accomplishable. I can’t wait to attempt a vegan Welsh Rarebit of my own!

Loved this book. Typically British meals, veganised - who could complain? Recipes are well set out and the pictures will make your mouth water

Yum! I’m always looking for vegan recipes. There are so many great recipes in this book that I look forward to trying out at home. I’ve bookmarked a few to try next weekend. Plenty of mains and puddings to try. Who knew you could veganize classic British dishes?

I like reading vegan cookbooks because they give me ideas of vegan meals that I can make to eat more healthfully part of the week, and this cookbook does a great job of that!

Very unique and intriguing cookbook! These recipes are interesting and I look forward to trying some. The level of complexity though varies so it might be too intensive for some skill levels.

I liked this book. I thought it a lovely resource for anyone wanting to delve into the world of vegetarianism. The recipes are simple and suitable for everyday cooking

Fantastic vegan cookbook.Eye pleasing recipes I can follow.A book that really in an understandable manner guides us into. the vegan world.#netgalley#greatbritishvegab

Really cool book with typical British recipes veganised! Having lived in the UK for a few years now makes me appreciate more their cuisine. Can't wait to try some of these! Loved the photography too.

This is a fantastic book to begin your vegan journey. Recipes are simple without any difficult ingredients, making it less intimidating. All classic dishes are present so your able to include your favorite dishes in your new lifestyle

Oh my gosh! This is a fabulous vegan cookbook. It is worth its weight in gold for the vegan sausage recipe alone. Welsh rarefied, scones, Victoria Sponge, finger sandwiches? All of the recipes seem approachable and delicious. And they use easy to find ingredients. A bonus for vegan cooking.

Wow! the author has really worked hard on veganizing many traditional British recipes. I hadn't even thought about all these oldies, and how they could be veganized, for example Wellington and Jaffa cakes. The latter is definitely something I'll try to bake soon. Now I wonder why I haven't thought about making them before.

Not being a Brit myself I have no craving for a typical British breakfast, but I am happy to see that it is easy to make a vegan version, without just having to stick to toast, tomatoes and beans. Welsh rarebit has been one of my favourite "fast food" for ages, and I'll be sure to try the recipe in this book as well.

One of the recipes I am interested in is Tofish and chips. It sounds perfect for one of those days you crave salt and grease. Britain is not famous for salads, or lighter meals in general, which I was reminded of when reading this book. Quite heavy and fatty food for me in general, but eaten once in a while I can deal with these kind of food. The pictures are great, and especially for the reason that I can immediately tell if the food is for me or not.

Most definitely worth checking out, because there is such a variety of recipes, and something for everyone.
