Recipe: home-made yoghurt

This was quick, easy and really rewarding. I'm not sure why I was so chuffed about it. Perhaps it was because it reminded me of the enjoyment I got from the yoghurt that my Grandmother used to make yogurt at her home. Either way, I think anyone who likes yoghurt, should try it at least once! :)

Ingredients for vegan yoghurt

• Boil 1 mug of milk

• 3 teaspoons of your yogurt starter - I used Tesco Free From Natural Yogurt

How to make vegan yoghurt

1. Boil the milk - I used soya milk but I plan to try it with oat milk soon

2. Let it cool until it feels hot if you put your finger in it but it is tolerable

3. When it is the temperature described above, mix in the yogurt starter

4. Put a bowl of water or something in the microwave and heat it using full power, for 2 minutes

5. While the microwave heats up, put the yogurt mix in an airtight container

6. Put the container within another airtight container, which has a lid and put the lid on it securely

7. Wrap a towel around it

8. Without turning it on, put it in the microwave and leave it there for about 6 hours

9. Don't open the microwave during this time

10. When you remove it, it will be warm and should have set

11. Put it in the fridge so it's cold and ready to eat
