All sorts of options. You could do a lot worse than look at Ottolenghi's recipes in Plenty, and also in Jerusalem. Since my wife went (kind of) vegan a few months ago, we have used these books time and again, especially Plenty. The best recipe, I think, is the ratatouille in Plenty. It is a pile of aubergine, pepper, onion, garlic, chilli, parsnip, potato , squash, french beans , courgette and tomato and is simply wonderful. Well worth a place at a Christmas meal. If it were my choice, I'd have his vegetable paella too, (and stick some sea food in it if no-one minded). The Maqluba in Jerusalem is amazing, too, but is best done with more nerve than I had the only time I've done it. To serve, you need to flip it over, tart Tatin like. I didn't dare, and regretted it.
