People are becoming health conscious with every passing day and prefer veterinarian food to other high-fat foods. However, great vegetarian food has been flourishing in Britain since the 1960s. Foods like roast beef, fish and chips, and shepherd’s pie are commonly thought of as traditional British fare, and they are unquestionably the foundation of the UK’s culinary legacy. Over the past few decades, there has been an increasing interest in vegetarian cuisine.

So, today, let’s see some of the famous and commonly eaten vegetarian dishes in the UK.

1. Cauliflower Cheese

A classic English dish, cauliflower cheese, consists of boiling cauliflower florets covered in a sauce made of flour, milk, butter, nutmeg, and aged cheeses like cheddar. The mixture is then roasted in the oven and served as a savory side dish with roasted meat and potatoes or as a vegetarian main dish.

2. Mushy Peas

Mushy peas are made by boiling marrowfat peas with soda bicarbonate, producing a thick pea soup typically eaten with roast leg of lamb in Ireland and fish and chips in England. The dish is thought to have been created sometime in the 1970s.

Although mushy peas are generally served warm, you can buy an industrial version of the meal in many shops across the country.

3. Stovies

Stoved tatties, a Scottish one-pot dish made with potatoes, onions, carrots, and leftover beef or mutton. There are two types of stovies: the more basic barefoot or barfit stovies are cooked only with potatoes and onions simmered in roasting dripping, while the so-called high-heelers contain a lot of meat.

Stovies are typically served in Aberdeen with oatcakes and milk.

4. Clapshot

The Orcadian clapshot, or clapshaw, is a well-known, traditional side dish that is served with Scottish haggis. This dish consists of yellow turnips and mashed potatoes, usually combined with chives, milk, and some butter or dripping; some recipes even incorporate onions.

Clapshot is typically served as a side dish with oatcakes, mince, sausages, and many other meat meals. But you can also eat it by itself.

5. Glamorgan Sausages

Are you thinking that we mentioned this sausage dish name by mistake? Or how can sausages be a vegetarian dish? Sorry to disappoint you! These Glamorgan sausages are not your normal sausages; they have the word “sausage” in their name and are sausage-shaped, but they aren’t made using meat.

These sausages are made using leeks, breadcrumbs, and caerphilly cheese, making them perfect Welsh vegetable sausages.

6. Punchnep

Punchnep is a traditional Welsh dish made with vegetables. To make this dish, root vegetables are boiled, mashed, and then combined with butter or cream. Potatoes and tiny white turnips are the most widely used combination in this dish, but carrots, peas, and parsnips are all frequently used, either alone or with the potatoes.
