Vegan food is on the rise, but you don’t have to miss out on your favourite classics….
Vol-au-vent (vidé or chicken à la king ) is a sumptuous dish, but how do you make this dish vegan or vegetarian? The recipe below is well worth trying! Incredibly easy and delicious…. Yummy!
Vegan vol-au-vent in just a few steps, for 2 people and ready in just 10 minutes!
What do you need for vegan vol-au-vent?
- 200 g oyster mushrooms
- 1 Pepper protein steak (Bertyn)
The Pepper Protein Steak from Bertyn is a protein-rich meat substitute with a vegan pepper cream sauce based on almond flour. This steak is prepared in a traditional way using organic spelt seitan. Seitan from Bertyn is organic, low in fat, low in carbohydrates and rich in protein.
How do you make vol-au-vegan?
- Tear the oyster mushrooms into long strips.
- Open the packet of seitan, set the sauce aside for a moment.
- Tear long strips off the seitan steak and fry it in a pan with a little olive oil until crispy.
- Fry the oyster mushrooms in a little olive oil as well and add these to the seitan.
- Pour the sauce on top and let it simmer for a while.
Tip : Delicious with chips, mashed potatoes or a Bouchée à la reine (biscuit).
Try vegan!
The theme for the month of November is “Try vegan”, a campaign led by EVA & BE Vegan. The aim of this campaign is to let the vegan kitchen surprise you. Try out delicious dishes, sample new flavours and discover how easy it is to eat fewer animal products. This is not only good for your health, but also has a positive impact on the climate and animal welfare.
Do you feel like eating vegan more often in your own home?
You can get plenty of inspiration for vegan cooking at Bertyn and Amanprana or via my Instagram posts. Discover the plant-based cuisine: kind to animals, people and the planet – what more could you ask for?
The Instant mixes from Bertyn fit right in with this and are amazing and incredibly easy to use – a must for your kitchen cupboard! Watch the video for all the possibilities and visit the website for our recipes.
