Adapted from Gena’s recipe from Choosing Raw, this raw spin on Thai red curry is scrumptious and oh-so-easy. Recipe: 1 cup coconut milk (made from 2 cups dried coconut flakes and 1 cup water) 1/2 red capsicum 4 leaves of fresh basil 2 dates Salt to taste I sliced some basil leaves and chopped up [...]
One of my fave raw meals is a simple soup and salad combo. I got the recipe from Kristen’s Raw blog, and oh my, did it tantalise my taste buds. It’s one of the rare soups I’ve encountered that doesn’t have avocado, but I think it would taste fantabulous with some avo. What I like [...]
When I need an Asian fix, a simple raw soup like this can quell my cravings. You can’t taste the almond aroma so this is truly a savoury meal. As you can see, I love my kelp noodles. Recipe: Almond milk (blend ½ cup almonds with 1½ cups water; strain) 1½ cups 1 tbs white [...]
I’m on a kelp noodle kick these days and loving raw Asian recipes. Adapted from Jonsi & Alex’s recipe book, this raw miso soup includes avocado because I felt I needed a heavy meal. I was hungry… Soup: 2 tsp white miso ½ avocado 1 slice ginger 1 clove garlic ½ cup water Noodles/Salad: Marinated [...]

I wasn’t overly fond of the slight almond aroma mingled with mushrooms but obviously most raw [...]
Adapted from The Sunny Raw Kitchen, it’s one of those meals where it looks "meh" but it tastes so good. I skipped the zucchini and replaced miso with shoyu as I don’t really like either in raw soups. Makes two servings: 1/2 avocado 4 cups spinach 2 cups cucumber 1 cup tomato 1 celery stalk [...]
Can you tell I’m in love with green soup? Perfect weather for it though I’m sure I will adore it in winter, too. This simple green soup by Victoria Boutenko was my first-ever attempt to get back into raw soups and it’s still one of my faves. 1 bunch spinach 1 bunch cilantro/coriander 1/2 avocado [...]
A creamy Asian raw soup seems like an oxymoron at the outset — we never use milk or cream in soups at all. But this soup has enough Asian flavour to warm my heart. It is so so so good. Sometimes I crave for rice noodle soups from Southeast Asia but they have zero nutritional [...]
Got this recipe from Salad Days, by a single raw gal who lives in Brooklyn, NYC. It’s her raw staple because it’s so delicious and easy to make. Blend (2 servings): 5 small tomatoes 1 clove garlic 1 tbs soy sauce 1 tbs apple cider vinegar 4 basil leaves 4 tbs extra virgin olive oil [...]
