1. Espresso Marzipan Raw Truffles

These little espresso and marzipan truffles are quite addictive—the sweet, nutty almond flavor combines so beautifully with the aromatic coffee and vegan chocolate, it’s hard to resist these Espresso Marzipan Raw Truffles by Ana Rusu. To be honest, just writing this description makes me want to go into the kitchen and fix myself some truffles. Their texture is soft, chewy and slightly rough due to the ground almonds. Sometimes I like to use bitter almonds in the marzipan or, if I have it on hand, substitute the almond extract with some good old amaretto. I would double up on this recipe, as these will be gone so quickly.   Credit: Reprinted with permission from New Vegan Baking by Ana Rusu. Page Street Publishing Co. 2023. Photo credit: Ana Rusu.

This Methi Na Gota (Fenugreek Leaf Fritters) by Manju Patel is popular on the streets of Gujarat is made by using fresh methi leaves (fenugreek). Although these leaves are quite bitter, they work wonderfully when balanced with spices. The centers of the fritters are soft and spongy once cooked, but once cooled they will become hard and so really are best served straight away.   From Manju’s Cookbook: Vegetarian Gujarati Indian Recipes from a Much-Loved Family Restaurant by Manju Patel, Photography by Clare Winfield © Ryland Peters & Small
