It's no longer difficult to follow a certain diet and enjoy good food, whether eating out or cooking at home. Both vegan and gluten-free cooking has come on leaps and bounds in recent years, and we now know that the key to great flavour is simply about the best ingredients – no matter what they are.

For those who are following both a vegan and gluten-free diet, it can feel a little limiting at times – but our collection of recipes that are free from both gluten and all animal products is the perfect place to find some inspiration. If you're yet to try making Aquafaba meringues, then you're missing out – they're every bit as good as their egg-based counterparts. Hosting a dinner party? Try Chantelle Nicholson's Slow-cooked aubergines with tamarind, roasted onion and white bean purée, or Rob Howell's Mushroom duxelles with pickled mushrooms and Jerusalem artichoke. Baba ganoush is an incredible dip to serve with other mezze dishes, while this Spiced roasted cauliflower and orange salad is bursting with flavour.

Don't think being gluten-free and vegan means you can't bake, either – just take a look at these Frosted raw vegan brownies and this Gluten-free vegan banana bread to see what we mean.
