Tofish and Chips

Looking for a super easy Tofish and Chips recipe?! You are at the right place, check out our recipe, follow along it’s super easy!!

Hi Everyone,

Welcome back to the blog.

In this post, I will show how to make that perfect Tofish & Chips and it will take us about 30-35 minutes.

The ingredients that you will need before battering the tofu:
– 400g firm tofu block
– salt
– 3 tbsp of olive oil
– 1 tbsp of lemon & dill seasoning (it’s fish seasoning)
– 5g of dried wakame seaweed

Go ahead and press the tofu for about 10-15 minutes, to get out the excessive water.

In the meantime, you can take some potatoes, wash them properly and cut them into thicker chips (fries) – once cut, wash them once again and place them in a pot with cold water and place on the stove on high heat – once boiling lower the heat and cook them for 5-6 minutes. Drain the potatoes and they are now ready for frying!

Cut the tofu into 6 equal pieces and then make small cuts on both sides. Once done, salt the tofu on both sides.
Blend the wakame seaweed and add it with 3 tbsp of olive oil and 1 tbsp of lemon and dill seasoning – mix it and brush it over the tofu.

It’s time to batter the tofu, and you will need the following ingredients:
– 180g of all-purpose flour
– 250ml of Pale Ale beer
– 1.5 tsp of salt
– 1 tsp of pepper
– 1/2 dried paprika
– 1 tsp of lemon & dill seasoning
– 1/4 cup of corn starch
– 1 tsp of baking powder
– 1/2 tsp of baking soda

Place all dry ingredients into a bowl and use a whisk to mix them. Once done, mix the pale ale to the batter and start battering the tofu – preheat about 2 inches of cooking (sunflower) oil – cook until it gets a nice and golden color!

Enjoy!

Buffalo Cauliflower Wraps

Have no idea what to fill your lunch box with? Check out our new recipe, and make the buffalo cauliflower wrap for yourself, cheers!

Hi Everyone,

Welcome back to the blog!

In this post, I will show you how to make a Buffalo Cauliflower Wrap! A sweet and spicy taste that is surely on the very top of my comfort food list. For the filling, we will also use guacamole and the recipe for that you can find on my Youtube channel if you click on the LINK.

If you would like to serve some absolutely stunning homemade chips/crisps you can find a video on my Youtube channel if you click on the LINK.

INGREDIENTS:
For the Buffalo Cauliflower batter recipe, next to a few florets of cauliflower & some hot sauce (1/4 cup) it requires the following ingredients:
– 3/4 cup of all-purpose flour
– 1/4 cup of corn starch
– 1,5 tsp of salt
– 1,5 tsp of chili flakes
– 1 tbsp of cajun seasoning
– 1 tbsp of dried paprika
– 1 tbsp of garlic powder
– 1 tbsp of onion powder
– 1 cup of soy milk (or any other plant-based milk)
– 1 tbsp of lemon juice
– 1 tbsp of maple syrup

PREPARATION:
Go ahead and put all the dry ingredients into a bowl a mix it together. Then you can add the liquid components and whisk until you get a nice batter.
Cut the cauliflower florets smaller and than salt them; roll them into all-purpose flour; dip them into the batter; put them on a baking tray

Bake them in the oven 180°C (360°F) FAN option for 20 minutes – while brushing them with hot sauce halfway!

Done with the cauliflower, let’s get the wraps ready!

We filled our wraps with the following ingredients:
– gem lettuce
– red kidney beans & sweet corn
– homemade guacamole (link to the recipe video is above)
– buffalo cauliflower

To start off, we always quickly heat up the wraps in a pan (10 seconds each side) so they roll more easily.

Once on the table, we will put the ingredients in the middle of the wrap (don’t overdo it). Fold the sides to the middle and then the bottom (the closest side to you) over the filling – now you can get it firmly together by pulling the filling to yourself! Roll it and cut through the middle and you are done!

Thank you and enjoy!

Cheers,

Vito

Crispy Potato Chips

Looking to make the perfect crispy chips/crips?? You are in the right place! Check out our new post and follow along – Enjoy!!!!!

Hi Everyone,

Welcome back to the blog!

In this post, we will show the BEST way (in our humble opinion) to make that crispy chips/crisps!

Cut some potatoes (or use a slicer/mandolin/food processor) in 2-3 millimeter thick slices and then wash them 2-3 times in cold water (try to separate them all while doing this). This is done to wash off the starch, so they don’t stick during the cooking.
Once you washed them, leave them in cold water for 15-20 minutes and add 2 tbsp of salt to it.
Before you cook them, lay them on a paper towel and also cover them with some paper to take off the excess water – you are ready to cook them!

Fill a pan with 1-1,5 inch of cooking oil and heat it up (the best temperature is about 180°C (360°F). Don’t put too many chips into the pan, so they can cook while not touching the other chips – it will take about 3 minutes to cook (flip them over half way).

Enjoy!

Vegan Burger

Are you vegan and craving a delicious burger? Well, you are at the right place!!! This amazing vegan burger is also gluten-free!!!

Today I am showing you a Classic, a delicious Vegan Burger that is also gluten-free! The preparation will take about 30 minutes and then it’s good to leave it in the fridge at least an hour so it gets a firmer shape. The mixture should be for 5 large or 10 smaller burgers.

INGREDIENTS:
– 2 tsp of dry paprika
– 1 tsp of turmeric
– 3 tsp of salt
– 1,5 tsp of chili flakes
– 1 tsp of pepper
– 1 tsp of garlic powder
– 2 tsp of dry thyme
– 1 tbsp of brown sugar
– 1 tbsp of coconut oil
– 6 tbsp of pea protein
– 5 tbsp of milled chia seeds
– 4 tbsp of tomato paste
– 2 tbsp of oil from sundried tomatoes (for umami flavor)
– 1 can of chickpeas
– 100g of soy mince
– 1 large cooked beetroot

PREPARATION:

Start off by cutting the beet into smaller pieces and put them in the blender. Get your chickpeas, as well as 1/2 cup of aquafaba (liquid out of the can), and add it to the blender – now blend it well!
Now you can soak the soy mince in water for about 5 – 10 minutes and then drain all the water out of it – give it all your power!!
Place the blended mixture a bowl and first add all the ingredients except soy mince, pea protein, and chia seeds – give it a good stir.
Now you can add the soy mince – give it a good stir – and add the protein and chia seeds at last and repeat the mixing.
Leave it to stay for 10 minutes just that the chia seeds and pea protein start working.
As it’s good to leave the burgers in the fridge for an hour you want to wrap up a chopping board in cling film – trust me 😉
Now for the burger mold, I have been creative and used a piece of an old plastic container – press them well.
Leave in the fridge and get them out whenever you are ready (you can freeze some of them, just put them on some baking paper).
Preheat your oven on 180°C (360°F) – place the burgers on some baking paper lightly sprayed with oil.
Cook for 20 – 30 minutes – you decide when you are happy.
The burgers won’t harden during the cooking BUT as you leave it outside the oven for a few moments they will get a nice crust!

You are ready to serve it, Enjoy!!
