-I'm Beca. I'm back on the road

-ready for a party.

-I want to share my recipes with you.

-I'm holding pop-up food parties

-all over Wales.

-From Anglesey to Carmarthenshire,

-I'll meet people who love food.

-There'll be a few familiar faces

-and some new ones too.

-If you're hungry,

-you've come to the right place.

-Welcome to the party in Pwllheli.

-We have all kinds

-of vegan food on the menu.

-World-renowned sailor Richard Tudor

-is here to help me.

-Also, one of Wales's most talented

-singers, Alys Williams.

-Our wine expert Arwel is here

-with more wonderful wines.

-We'll also check out

-the local chefs in our competition.

-Ooh!

-Off we go!

-With more people

-eating vegan food...

-..for health

-and environmental reasons...

-..the choice

-of available vegan food...

-..has increased considerably

-in recent years.

-Tonight, I'll show you

-how to prepare tasty vegan meals.

-I'll meet a vegan chocolate maker

-from Abersoch.

-Alys will show me how to make

-one of her favourite dishes...

-..vegan macaroni cheese.

-First, a taste of the Far East.

-Since travelling through Thailand

-and Malaysia as a student...

-..I've been inspired

-by the food they eat.

-Fresh flavours,

-crunchy vegetables, the chillies.

-I'm making an Asian salad.

-I have noodles made from rice,

-beansprouts, soya beans...

-..carrots, spring onions, chilli...

-..mint and coriander.

-To complement them,

-a delicious dressing.

-First, the salad.

-First, pour boiling water

-on the noodles.

-These won't take long to cook -

-just a couple of minutes.

-Leave them to soak.

-On to the vegetables.

-You can use any vegetables

-you like...

-..but I've gone

-for colour and crunch.

-I'm using a peeler

-to make carrot ribbons.

-Thinly slice

-the rest of the vegetables.

-Fresh mint and coriander

-and noodles.

-Add a little sesame oil

-before moving on to the sauce.

-Pour in some rice vinegar

-over nut butter.

-Add soy sauce, maple syrup, fresh

-ginger and a squeeze of lime juice.

-Lovely.

-I like serving the salad

-in takeaway boxes.

-Perfect for a party.

-Add some fresh chillies,

-toasted nuts and spring onions.

-Job done.

-I could taste

-many different flavours in it.

-The texture was OK.

-I didn't know what to expect.

-No, it was very nice.

-I'd like to try cooking

-more vegan food.

-After tasting this, it's very nice.

-Every box is empty.

-It was wonderful, yes.

-The noodles were fantastic.

-The noodles were fantastic.

-

-I feel healthy after eating it.

-Good evening. Are you all well?

-Yes, thank you.

-Thank you for coming. Cheers.

-Richard, you're a local lad,

-you were raised in Pwllheli.

-I grew up here, near the sea.

-The sea is my life.

-With the sea so close to you,

-do you eat a lot of seafood?

-These days,

-I don't think I eat enough seafood.

-I love crab, lobster,

-crayfish and prawns.

-I don't think I eat enough of it.

-Do you eat more meat and vegetables?

-Do you eat more meat and vegetables?

-

-I'm afraid so.

-While you were away sailing,

-what did you eat?

-When I was away

-for long periods of time...

-..I would take

-freeze-dried food with me.

-It's dried food.

-One of those meals was a pack

-of chicken pieces.

-The chicken came in small squares

-like Oxo cubes.

-That doesn't sound nice.

-We would rehydrate it

-by pouring water on it.

-If we didn't have enough water,

-we'd turn seawater into fresh water.

-We would rehydrate the dried food...

-..and it would expand

-to three times its original size.

-It tasted like marshmallows.

-Oh, no!

-Did you just eat it to produce

-enough energy to carry on sailing?

-Did you used to take anything

-with you to make it taste better?

-Yes, tabasco. Lots of tabasco.

-The problem I found was

-that it wasn't crunchy.

-That first dish you served us,

-there was a lovely crunch to it.

-At sea, back then,

-there was no crunch in your food.

-I would sneak in

-a few Cream Crackers.

-I like that!

-I'd scoop the marshmallow

-onto the Cream Crackers.

-Meat on the cracker,

-a splash of tabasco.

-There's a recipe.

-I'll take that from you.

-You're joining me in the kitchen

-to cook your favourite vegan foods.

-One of my favourite vegan treats.

-I don't eat this all the time

-but my children love it.

-Instead of making

-a typical vegan dish...

-..I wanted a dish to show you could

-make something that tasted creamy...

-..without using dairy products.

-That's what I'll try and make.

-That's what I'll try and make.

-

-I can't wait for that. Thank you.

-I hope you enjoy

-the rest of the night.

-Alys has joined me in the kitchen.

-You've chosen a lot of ingredients.

-My inspiration comes from a lot

-of different recipes.

-I've combined them all

-and added a few ideas of my own.

-I hope...

-I hope...

-

-You've found the perfect recipe.

-I think so.

-I think it's great.

-Brilliant. I'll help you out

-as much as I can.

-What's first?

-This recipe is a great treat

-whether you're vegan or not.

-Alys has cooked the butternut squash

-for 90 minutes until it's soft.

-She adds coconut milk,

-mustard, onion powder...

-..nutritional yeast

-to give it a savoury flavour...

-..stock...

-..soft vegan cheese, pepper...

-..cider vinegar, garlic,

-smoked water and almond milk.

-She mixes the ingredients

-until they're nice and smooth.

-To add crunch, Alys cooks some kale.

-She covers it with oil...

-..a sprinkling of salt and pepper

-and cooks it for ten minutes.

-The kale's in the oven.

-The pasta's cooking.

-Have you had a busy year?

-Have you had a busy year?

-

-I've had a good year, yes.

-I've been with the band for a year

-and things are going well.

-You're on the road a lot.

-What foods do you eat

-when you're out?

-I'm good at preparing lunchboxes.

-Food prep! A fridge full of boxes.

-Do the family enjoy this food?

-Do the family enjoy this food?

-

-Yes, yes.

-The children love this dish

-but I add some jalapenos to it.

-I serve them this dish

-with broccoli and onions.

-I add some spices to my plate.

-When the pasta is ready,

-Alys adds the squash sauce...

-..tomatoes, jalapenos

-and more pepper.

-Before serving it,

-Alys adds spring onions...

-..parsley, crunchy onions,

-paprika and the kale.

-It looks incredible.

-It looks incredible.

-

-Thanks, Beca.

-The first flavour I tasted

-was the squash.

-It's sweet.

-This is packed with flavour.

-The jalapenos are amazing.

-Brilliant.

-I could easily eat it all.

-Can I have the recipe?

-Can I have the recipe?

-

-Of course.

-When I make this, people don't

-realize it has no dairy products.

-Thank you for joining me

-in the kitchen.

-I hope you enjoy

-the rest of the night.

-Plenty of food still to come.

-I'm just going to eat this!

-Cheers.

-Later,

-Arwel chooses some vegan wines...

-..I'll be making vegan burgers

-and a vegan chocolate cake...

-..and we'll have the competition.

-Welcome back to Pwllheli

-where we're celebrating vegan food.

-Keeping me company

-is sailor Richard Tudor...

-..and singer Alys Williams.

-We've eaten a tasty salad

-and it's time for the main course.

-I'm making vegan burgers.

-I'm using black beans and mushrooms.

-Black beans are great -

-they're full of fibre and protein.

-I love them.

-To add more flavour,

-I have chestnut mushrooms...

-..and some dried mushrooms.

-There are a lot of different

-flavours and I hope it'll be tasty.

-First, slice the onion.

-This recipe is so simple,

-everything goes into the mixer...

-..but it helps

-to chop the ingredients first.

-I'm adding plenty of garlic

-to give it flavour.

-The dried porcini mushrooms have

-been soaked in water for 20 minutes.

-Use any type of fresh mushrooms.

-Add a pinch of salt and blitz them.

-To reduce the water,

-I fry the mixture for a few minutes.

-No-one likes a soggy burger.

-To add substance to the burgers, add

-black beans, cooked brown rice...

-..breadcrumbs and parsley.

-Mix all the ingredients.

-I add a mixture of dried spices

-including chilli and paprika.

-You can try any spices you'd like.

-Shape the burgers.

-Drizzle oil on a baking tin

-to prevent them sticking.

-The burgers are ready.

-Cover them with Clingfilm and place

-them in the fridge for 30 minutes...

-..to help them stick together.

-Cook them and serve them

-in focaccia bread.

-Focaccia is a wonderful bread.

-My version is easy to make.

-Mix white bread flour with semolina,

-salt, yeast, water and olive oil...

-..to make the dough.

-When it's ready, let it rest

-until it doubles in size.

-Pour the dough into baking tins

-greased with olive oil...

-..before leaving it to prove

-for a further 30 minutes.

-Before baking, add some more

-olive oil, rosemary and salt.

-30 minutes in the oven

-at 200 degrees Celsius.

-Serve with tomato and roasted

-red pepper sauce and avocado.

-The recipe is on the website.

-I'm a fan of vegetarian burgers.

-For me that was nice

-and different to what I'm used to.

-I'm a meat eater so I'm biased.

-As I was eating it,

-I missed the meat.

-I felt I was eating

-something similar to meat.

-You realised that it contained

-mushrooms but I didn't.

-It was really nice.

-The bread was also delicious.

-That's really nice.

-I'm taking a break from the kitchen

-to drink some wine with Arwel.

-Good evening.

-Good evening.

-

-What do you have for me?

-Since we're on a vegan theme

-I've brought some vegan wines.

-What constitutes a vegan wine?

-It happens at the end

-of the wine-making process.

-Once it's been filtered, there are

-still some sins left in the wine...

-..molecules too small

-to be filtered.

-During the fining process,

-albumen is added...

-..along with isinglass which

-is obtained from fish bladders.

-In the old days, bull's blood.

-But not anymore.

-But not anymore.

-

-Delicious!

-That's not part of the wine

-but it acts as a magnet.

-It combines the molecules to make

-something that can be filtered out.

-What's first?

-We start with Gewurztraminer

-from Chile.

-This is the Adobe.

-This is a vegan wine.

-This is a drier Gewurztraminer.

-The German Gewurztraminer

-is sweet.

-And the Alsace in France.

-Let's try this one.

-It's full bodied as you'd expect

-with a Gewurztraminer.

-It complements

-a spicy dish perfectly.

-It has a floral bouquet,

-its aroma is perfumey.

-All kinds of things are happening.

-All kinds of things are happening.

-

-Cheers.

-Ooh, nice.

-You said it was dry.

-I still expected it to be sweet

-but it's not.

-No. There's far more acidity to it.

-This will complement anything spicy.

-Brilliant. That's really nice.

-This is from Chile.

-Where did you buy it?

-One of the independent wine shops

-in Pwllheli.

-You need to do more searching

-for vegan wines.

-The one supermarket that's good

-for vegan wines is Co-op.

-On the back, where all

-the ingredients are printed...

-..they identify the fining agent.

-If you see isinglass, albumen

-or gelatine, it's not vegan.

-If you see Benzanine listed,

-that's a vegan fining agent.

-Brilliant.

-Next, I've chosen something

-completely different.

-Rutherglen Muscat from Australia

-is a dessert wine.

-Ideal to go with your chocolate

-cake, this is also a vegan wine.

-The only difference

-is the fining process at the end.

-It looks like a sherry.

-It's a darker colour.

-It's darker than

-a Beaumes de Venise, for example.

-Beaumes de Venise

-doesn't have enough body...

-..there's not enough flavour

-to cut through the chocolate.

-You can smell raisins.

-Raisins, dried fruit.

-Dried fruit, figs.

-That's...

-That complements the chocolate cake.

-I don't think it's too sweet.

-There is a lot of sugar in it...

-..but it doesn't give the impression

-that it's full of sugar.

-Thank you.

-Now for the dessert. I'm making

-a fantastic chocolate cake.

-Place brown sugar,

-vegetable oil, syrup...

-..vanilla essence, almond milk

-in a bowl and whisk them together.

-Sift self-raising flour,

-cacao powder...

-..plain flour

-and crushed almonds into the bowl.

-Split the mixture between two tins

-and bake for 25 minutes.

-To finish off, I'll make

-some butter cream or frosting.

-Since this is a vegan cake,

-I'm using avocados...

-..cacao powder

-for the chocolate flavour...

-..and maple syrup for sweetness.

-Mix the ingredients

-in a food processor.

-After covering the cake,

-add some pieces of chocolate.

-Earlier in the day,

-I visited Sue from Abersoch.

-Her speciality is vegan chocolate.

-Hiya, Sue.

-Back in 2010, Sue started

-her Choco Mama chocolate business.

-Wow, thank you.

-The chocolate many of us eat

-is full of sugar and fatty oils.

-That's so delicious.

-Vegan chocolate in its purest form

-is full of healthy fats.

-It also has more antioxidants

-than berries.

-You learn something new every day.

-All of these chocolate bars

-are made by you in your kitchen.

-I make very small batches

-and it's completely hand-made.

-I don't use any machinery.

-You've got pretty moulds

-to do these pretty effects.

-I've not seen them used before.

-To make the chocolate, Sue uses

-cocoa butter, raw cocoa powder...

-..coconut sugar and some Himalayan

-salt crystals to add sweetness.

-Sue creates all kinds of flavours,

-from fruit to nuts.

-I'm making a chocolate cake,

-dairy free and vegan.

-I'd love to have some

-of your chocolate as a decoration.

-That's brilliant.

-I've got the right thing for you.

-I love it, in a Tupperware box.

-Perfect.

-I just love that pattern.

-That'll be brilliant.

-Thank you very much, Sue.

-I thought it had a lovely light

-texture, really, really nice.

-A lovely level of sweetness

-and a good chocolate flavour.

-It's lovely.

-I really, really enjoyed the cake.

-It was lovely, really, really nice.

-It was wonderful. I'm a chocoholic.

-You told me about this.

-I have a problem with

-chocolate cake. That was excellent.

-The chocolate was quite brittle.

-I knew there was no milk in it but

-I couldn't identify the ingredients.

-It didn't make any difference,

-it was very nice.

-Great. It was soft, full of flavour.

-It was soft, I have no complaints.

-Now for my favourite part

-of the night, the competition.

-These look fantastic, thank you.

-The theme was to create

-a vegan dessert.

-I can't wait to taste these.

-Taste a little of each one

-and choose the best.

-Biscuit base, it looks nice.

-A raw vegan hazelnut caramel pie.

-Nice.

-I tend to do lots of raw desserts

-without eggs.

-It's second nature to me now.

-Good start!

-A lemon loaf.

-This looks nice.

-I made a lemon loaf.

-I made a lemon loaf.

-

-That's nice.

-It's the first vegan recipe

-I've ever tried making.

-That's a good one.

-That's a good one.

-

-This is going to be difficult.

-Let's move on to the pie.

-A coconut and lime pie.

-I've made a coconut and lime pie.

-I've used a variety of ingredients

-including avocado and mango...

-..to make the filling.

-You want to try more.

-Brownies. Go for it. A brownie each.

-A pecan and chocolate brownie.

-I'd pour a generous amount

-of cream on it.

-No, sorry.

-No, cream.

-I made a raspberry and strawberry

-cheesecake. It didn't go very well!

-Strawberries and raspberries.

-Ooh, it's nice and creamy.

-These are nut and banana cakes.

-When I first made the cake mix,

-it seemed rather dry.

-My first thought was to add milk!

-Then I remembered. I added more

-banana which made it quite moist.

-Hello.

-Nice.

-All these cakes are great.

-It's going to be difficult

-for our guests to choose the best.

-Let's choose a winner.

-That's my favourite.

-Believe it or not, I like the flop.

-You must agree.

-You must agree.

-

-It's a problem.

-Try the flop once more.

-You're trying to change my mind.

-She wants the flop.

-It's really nice.

-It's really nice.

-

-The flop.

-I choose that one.

-I choose that one.

-

-You persuaded him!

-This one wins.

-This one wins.

-

-The flop! Yay.

-Who made the flop? Hannah.

-Yay!

-Come down here.

-It's tasty.

-It's tasty.

-

-Really tasty.

-How did you make it?

-Cashews, coconut oil...

-..strawberries,

-raspberries, some syrup.

-For the base,

-I used almonds and dates...

-Dates.

-..and some syrup.

-Congratulations. Give her a clap.

-Well done.

-That's the end of the night.

-My thanks go to Alys, Richard,

-Arwel and the people of Pwllheli.

-We'll carry on enjoying the cakes.

-See you next time. Cheerio.
