Funky Vegan Recipe

Cookies and cakes seem to be quite easy to prepare the vegan way. For main dishes, though, it gets rough and it gets boring. If you are not willing to put in the time and use your creativity, you can dine on Ramen noodles 3 times a day. Vienna and Jordan had "fried chicken" at the party and I found the recipe on the web. Quite interesting...


Vegan Fried Chicken

Ingredients:

    1/2 cup hot water
    1 tablespoon vegan "chicken" bouillon powder
    1/2 cup textured soy protein
    1/2 cup vegan pancake mix, dry
    salt, to taste
    pepper, to taste
    other seasonings, to taste
    2/3 cup crushed cornflakes
    oil for frying

Directions:

1. Put hot water in a bowl. Stir in bouillon powder. Soak textured soy protein in this liquid for 10 minutes. 

2. Mix just enough pancake mix in with the textured soy to make a cohesive mixture that can be formed into patties. Mix in salt, pepper, and any other seasonings you want to use. 

3. Put crushed cornflakes in a plate. Dip patties into cornflakes, covering them completely.

4. Heat some oil on medium heat in a heavy frying pan. Fry patties in oil until crispy, turning occasionally.

Serve with a creamy sauce, and  mashed or oven-fried potatoes.
