Vegetarian food

Vegetarian food full of flavour for every weeknight – our chefs pick the ingredients and deliver them to your door.


A filling vegetarian meal needs enough protein: beans, lentils, chickpeas, tofu and oat-based products are good sources and soak up sauces and seasonings well. If you use canned pulses, rinse them well before cooking.

Fry vegetables in batches rather than crowding the pan, where they steam, so they take on colour instead of turning watery. Root vegetables are best roasted in the oven at 200 degrees, while quick-cooking vegetables such as broccoli and peppers are done in a wok in a few minutes.

Many meat recipes can be turned vegetarian by swapping the mince for lentils or broad bean mince in the same ratio. In Ruokaboksi's vegetarian recipes, the ingredient quantities are pre-measured for four people.
