Recipe: Easy Vegan Yellow Curry

Yellow Curry is truely amazing, it contains a burst of flavour and warms you up in the cold days. This recipe is one of my favourites, it's not very difficult to make and still looks AWESOME also if you have friends over, so try it out! :)

 

1. Cut the vegetables

2. Put the rice to boil

3. Add the oil to a large pan, and when hot add the onion. Fry until translucent, add the garlic for about one minute. 

3. Add the pumpkin, bell pepper and chilli pepper, followed by the coconut milk, vegetable broth and curry paste. 

4. Let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until pumpkin is tender. 

5. Taste and add salt/pepper/soysauce (only a little bit!) if necessary

6. Add the lemon juice and simmer for another 2-3 minutes (you can also already add the cashews if you like them to be a bit softer, which is also delicious!)

7. Serve with the rice and put some spring onion and cashews on top for serving. 

8. ENJOY! :)

Recipe: Delicious vegan ramen recipe

Recipe: Delicious vegan ramen recipe

It's RAMEN TIME! :D 

This is a Japanese ramen recipe that is delicious and suitable for everyone, also vegans. It is easy to make and you can create a different dish every time if you change the toppings. This recipe will give you the ramen stock, and some toppings I really like. In case you make the stock with mushrooms, add 1 hour to your cooking time. However, it's also delicious without the mushrooms! 

1. cut the tempe/tofu and put it in a bowl with a bit of soy sauce and garlic.

2. cut the garlic and ginger into small pieces and heat it in sesame or sunflower oil for about five minutes on low heating. 

3. now add the stock, soy sauce, mirin and if you use them, the dried shiitake or different type of mushrooms. Let it cook for about 5-10 minutes (the longer the tastier though), but in case you added dried mushrooms, let it boil for one hour before you continue with step 4. 

4. prepare the toppings (cut them into smaller pieces if necessary).

- heat some oil in a separate pan and bake the tempe/tofu. 

- boil some water in a separate pot, add the spinach for about two minutes, then drain the spinach with cold water. 

5. add the noodles and cook as long as necessary, then turn down the heat, add the miso paste and stirr well (don't boil when the miso paste is in). 

6. divide the stock and noodles over two bowls and add the toppings. I only use a little bit of pickled ginger in the middle because it looks very pretty but has a strong flavour. And you can sprinkle with sesame seeds. 

7. Enjoy

Recipe: Vegan Arepas

Recipe: Vegan Arepas

Arepas are corn pancakes/bread that can be eaten in all kinds of ways. If I understood correctly, arepas are mostly eaten like a kind of sandwich in Colombia (so cut open the arepa and put stuffing inside), while in Ecuador I mostly got it as a kind of thick pancake with other things on top. 

Since I am vegan I try to find food that fills me up and gets me through a day of walking and sightseeing. This arepas recipe is perfect for this; it is super easy, very filling, healthy and most importantly super delicious. Of course, you can adjust the recipe to your liking, but here is the recipe the way I like it: 

Ingredients for one/two people: 

Arepas: 

  • 1 cup arepa flour (in the Netherlands I can only find P.A.N. but other brands are masarepa and harina blanca. Just look for 'pre-cooked corn flour' and if you're in a Spanish speaking country just say 'harina para arepas?' which means 'flour for arepas?' and they will help you. 
  • 1 1/4 cup warm-hot water 
  • Pinch of salt
  • One Tbsp vegetable oil (sunflower)
  • Optional: other ingredients to add to the bread (I often add garlic or onion (small pieces) or paprika powder)

On the side: 

  • 1 can brown beans or kidney beans (400gr)
  • 1 can diced tomatoes
  • 1 small can of corn
  • 1 onion cut into small pieces
  • 3 cloves of garlic cut into small pieces
  • 2 diced tomatoes (optional)
  • 1 avocado (optional)
  • One tablespoon paprika powder 
  • Chili (optional)
  • Salt (optional)
  • Oil

1. Cut the ingredients that you want to mix with the arepa flour into small pieces. 
2. Mix all the ingredients for the arepas. 
3. Knead until you get a ball of dough. 
4. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes. 

1. Cook the onions in vegetable oil for about 3-5 minutes
2. Add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute
3. Now add the can of beans, corn and can of tomatoes (optional: chili & salt)
4. Turn to low heat and let it simmer 

5. Now shape the arepa dough to 1cm thick pancakes. You can choose the size depending on what you prefer. 
6. Bake the arepa in a good non-stick pan with enough oil and turn over when the bottom is golden-brown (you can also semi-fry them by adding a lot of oil and adding the arepa when the oil is hot)
7. Put the arepa on a plate, add the bean mix and add some fresh avocado and tomato pieces

ENJOY! :)
