Vegan Home Cooks

Thick homemade whole wheat pizza dough with caramelised white onions, Kalamata olives, capers, and nori leaves, with herbes de Provence, some salt and msg.

Made my peanut sauce a bit too thick but still tasty. Love making gado gado as a quick dinner after a busy day. Favourite go to vegetables are frozen green beans and some sliced carrots. Tofu marinated in some soy sauce before frying.

I copped up a lot of herbs (parsley, cilantro, dill, fenugreek) and mixed them with :

1 cup of "smegg" batter made from soaked moong dal blended with soy milk, salt, pepper, turmeric, a little vinegar and a little baking powder

a flax-egg made from 1 tbsp flax seeds ground up and mixed with 3tbsp water

extra salt and pepper

I cooked these like pancakes on a griddle.

It was tasty 🧡

Base recipe by Bianca Zapatka, I adapted it slightly: https://biancazapatka.com/en/vegan-crunchwrap-supreme/

These are big boys

Overnight oats with soymilk, hazelnut puree, broken flaxseeds, cinnamon, blueberries and an apple 🤤

I used tomatoes that I grew and froze, tomatoes I canned but didn't grow, carrots I grew and canned, zucchini I grew from this year.

Rice, kidney beans, kale, raw zucchini, tomato paste, hummus, turneric, garlic, pepper, dried onions, chives and nooch. 🥰

I made a quick dough with whole wheat floud, salt and water and rolled them out on my chakla and cooked them on the griddle. I didn't let it sit long enough so they didn't puff up as much as I wanted lol

The soup is just 1/2 cup red masoor, left over tomatoes and chilis, ginger paste and home made "curry" masala mix.

I improvised a wood fired stove with bricks to achieve 'wok hei' (wok breath) and fortunately it worked! You can see the charring on the veggies and rice, it's really delicious

My fav comfort food. I always bake to welcome people home

with leftover rice

This was my second try at this dish. It's incredible how yummy the doubanjian and how fragrant the Sichuan peppers are.

I soaked chickpeas over night and pressure cooked them til soft then drained, added back to the instant pot and just simmered with the rest of the veg in my refrigerator before I went shopping today. I added Indian inspired spices and served with rice.

Come join the Vegan Home Cooks!

Participation is really easy, just take a picture of what you cooked today and post it, no recipes needed.

This is a public forum for a discord server of friends who are all vegans and cook at home for their families. We are here to share some inspiration, to see what others are doing and to stay engaged in something that is both our hobbies and a required task.

This forum is not a "food porn" community, a recipe book or a place to teach you how to cook. It is a place for people who already cook to meet other people like themselves and provide on topic support and conversation as much as long distance friends on the internet can do.

Veganism isn’t a diet but I have to eat every day. This is for the vegan home cooks. Anything non vegan will be deleted.

1. Be Vegan.

If it is not vegan it doesn’t belong here… or anywhere.

2. Post home cooking.

No restaurant or fast food. This is a place for vegan home cooks. We all eat at restaurants but this is what literally every vegan space is about so post pics of your food orders somewhere else, we don’t want to promote any large or small business tyrants

3. Join the Discord

We’re an active community of vegan home cooks that like to talk about what we are cooking today.

4. Do not make any rude comments or digs at anyone’s food, cooking style, specific diet, restrictions or technique.

While we are all cooks, we all have different requirements and we’re not asking for help, we are doing show and tell.

5. Do not use trademarked brands

Use generic names. We like to figure out alternatives to expensive corporate products. We’re cooking with tvp not whatever shitty business brands it, we’re not trying to turn comrades into billboards. No plant-based vegan-pandering capitalist crap like Impossible, Beyond, Dairy-company owned “vegan” cheese.

6. Do not make any unasked for suggestions.

Sometimes we do like to hear suggestions or ideas but you should be nice about it and preferably know the person you are making suggestions for. We all are in the discord and you can get to know us that way. If you are just a visitor from the fediverse, this isn’t the place for you to start telling other people what to do.

7. Do not ask for a recipe without otherwise engaging the OP (No posts that are just “recipe?”)

We are not food bloggers and are not compensated for copy-editing and testing recipes for you. Do your own research and show us what you learned. If you want ideas or help reach out with a comment or better yet join the discord and talk to us about it in real time. We’re cooking and bullshitting there.
