@mymeatlessmeals “The Return of my Vegan “Fish” and Chips ?? Hey friends! ??♀ today I’m bringing back one of your favourites: my interpretation of the classic British dish, Vegan (Faux) Fish and Chips. I choose to cook with aubergine/ eggplant because of the soft texture it offers once it’s thoroughly cooked, as well as the natural sweetness which I personally enjoy with that flavourful crisp on the outside. I am aware that there are so many ways to create this dish, but this is just how I choose to veganize it. As you can see, I don’t cover the vegetable with nori because nori becomes soggy and mushy when comes in direct contact with liquid. So, instead I use nori powder to give that seafood aroma and umami flavour in the batter. Hope you all are having a wonderful week and thank you for watching my video(s). ?⠀
