Tea times and food.

Amazing sandwich!

 

This. Was. Amazing. Leftovers to create this sandwich. Beyond Italian sausage, air fryer kabocha squash, curry mayo and red cabbage slaw. The sweet pumpkin went so well with the spicy sausage. Along with the curry mayo and tangy cabbage, it was a flavor explosion. 

Noodles, tea time, simple lunch.

Udon with sesame chili oil sauce. 

Tea time. Me time.

Simple homemade vegetable soup flavored with Italian herbs and topped with Chao cheese.

 This is from Meera Sodha’s EAST. Fantastic cookbook.

Delicious on rice. 

And udon noodles too!

 

Air Fryer Kabocha Squash

 Oh my god. This air fried kabocha squash burger (sandwich?) with curry mayo and tangy cabbage slaw was absolutely incredible. I cannot wait to eat this again tomorrow! Foodgasm! 

Recipe-ish:

Peel and slice Kabocha Squash into 1” slices. Put in a bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Coat with oil, then add salt, pepper, mild curry powder and a generous amount of panko and toss. Place into air fryer in one layer. Press remaining panko onto the slices. Air fry at 380 degrees for 20 minutes. 

Curry mayo: vegan mayo plus curry powder plus lemon juice plus a pinch of salt. 

Slaw: Shredded cabbage, white wine vinegar, a drizzle of olive oil, a touch of agave, salt, pepper and Everything But The Bagel seasoning.

Spinach Artichoke Dip.

 Delicious cashew based dip recipe from Simple Veganista. I baked mine a little longer and used half Brazil nuts so mine came out less creamy but great texture. 

Some foods.

Delicious foods! Moutabal, zucchini and roasted pepper dip meze plate. Teatime with Victoria sponge cake. Chickpea “tuna” and sweetcorn pasta.  Air fryer potato wedges.

 

Rabokki

This was my attempt to make Rabokki (RAMEN + TTEOKBOKKI) the way The Viet Vegan on IG made it. It looked so good! She made the rice cakes out of rice paper wrappers with vegan meat and cheese in them. I used Tofurky and Chao cheese. I know I did a lot of things wrong, making the rice cakes way too big and ending up with too much broth! But the flavor was a huge umami bomb. It was salty, spicy, savory, absolutely delicious.
