The Sorted Boys - Vegan Curry

My domestic goddess sister!

Whilst staying with my sister in London, we decided to hold a mini dinner party to try out this recipe we found from YouTube sensations The Sorted Boys. This bantering, lighthearted crew started off as just a bunch of friends swapping recipe ideas round a pub table, but have now escalated into not only Europe's largest cooking community on YouTube, but also the producers of two recipe books which promote fun, social, and simple cooking.

When I moved out of halls last year my sister gave me their first book 'The Beginner's Cookbook' - having tried out a number of their recipes, I find their simplistic, short instructions really useful and easy to follow, but I would say you need a slight knowledge of what you're cooking as a certain amount of improvisation is needed for some of those in-betweeny guesswork moments. Nonetheless, the combination of comfort food and healthier recipes make it perfect for the student - whatever mood you're in!

Casual bit of houmous blending

Having mentioned their focus on social cooking, this recipe really encompassed this - we all had bits and bobs to do, and could enjoy a chat and glass of wine at the same time! The recipe took no more than 20 minutes to make, and it was unexpectedly really filling and satisfying - the perfect guilt-free treat! We served ours up with mini naan breads, rice would also probably go quite well if you're not actually vegan/gluten free. For me, the best part was the houmous - I am never looking back to the shop bought stuff again!

The finished product!
