vegan recipies

[-[Eco-Geek]-]

I could give you a few vegan recipies... Though I've only cut dairy and other animal products out of my life in the past three months.

What I had for tea tonight: Thai style with wholewheat noodles (or egg noodles if you're ovo-vegetarian).

You need:

3 spring onions
1 teaspoon of chopped fresh ginger or ground ginger (fresh is nicer)
4 tablespoons of chopped fresh corriander
Wheat noodles
2 tablespoons soy sauce
Cooking oil...

1. Prepare the noodles and heat the oil in the wok.
2. Drain the noodles and stir fry the spring onions and ginger.
3. Add the corriander and stir for around one minute, the add the noodles and the soy sauce.
4. Stir for another two minutes then serve.

This is a really good vegan food blog: http://www.veganimprov.com/

If anyone's vegan and into Italian food then there's also a vegan place i eat at often and the manager gave me his recipe for really yummy white sauce:

1/2 cup raw cashews
1 cup hot water
1 cup hot soya milk
2 tsp brown-rice flour (i guess white rice flour would also be fine?)
1/2 tsp sea salt

- process cashews with hot water until very smooth
- add the rest and blend till smooth
- pour into saucepan and simmer, stirring constantly till thick

Easy easy tip if you like med dishes...

Get some veg stock and put it in required amount of boiling water. Then put in some dried herbs (oregano, basil ect) and squeeze some tomato paste. It's a good base to cook with.

I substitute lentils for quorn as i think it is too expensive. Also, wash them first, then leave in boiling water for about 15 minutes (usually about the same time as preparing the other ingrediants like onions, garlic etc). Brilliant for curries, lasagne, stews, casseroles, etc. I also use soya milk instead of cows milk.

Or TVP... Isn't that vegan?

You have to boil vegans for hours to make them edible.

I wouldn't bother if I were you.

I have now made this 'joke' exactly 8 times on u75

Quality 14-year bump!
I made that in the first lockdown, when we got celeriac in the veg box 3 weeks running. It was nice. Do keep poking it with a skewer, though - using Nigel's timings wasn't nearly long enough to achieve melting softness.
