What’s your favorite way to cook potatoes? I know it’s not the healthiest but I love frying them. ? these are the potato and cauliflower croquettes but they’re in ball shapes this time around! The full recipe is on www.thefoodietakesflight.com. ? __ I’ve been so busy lately that it hasn’t really sunk it yet that it’s April, and it’s my 4th year as a vegan this month. It’s been an unforgettable 4 years on this journey learning so much about myself and also about everything else around me. Veganism has opened my eyes not just to the realities of animal agriculture but it’s made me more compassionate and conscious towards other beings and most especially the environment. I’ve had amazing opportunities and met so many people along the way that wouldn’t have been if I didn’t make that one decision. So I’m very grateful for everything! I also had a fun afternoon trying all those vegan desserts for PETA’s best vegan dessert competition. It’s been a challenging past few days because of all that’s been going on and it’s definitely tested my time-management skills but I’m very thankful for everything still. (P.S. I dipped these in @simpl_sauces’ sesame nori sauce ?) __ . . . . . . . . . #thefoodietakesflight #compassionateliving #manilavegans #yummyph #veganfoodie #feedyoursoull #plantpower #veganph #foodgawker #plantbased #whatveganseat #yahoofood #instavegan #instafood #veganism #vegankitchen #foodphotography #foodblogfeed #gloobyfood #inspiremyinstagram #heresmyfood #plantbased #govegan #cleaneats #foodies #eattheworld #veganfoodshare

Chili Mango Glazed Cauliflower ? I made this recipe for the first time last July and recently just tried it again this time around with a few adjustments. You can find the recipe below. I used my crispy cauliflower recipe as the base for this one. Hope you like it! CHILI MANGO GLAZED CAULIFLOWER Chili Mango Glaze 1/2 cup distilled white vinegar  1/2 cup to 3/4 cup sugar, adjust according to desired sweetness 1 very ripe mango, 160g of flesh  2 tbsp lime juice Pinch of salt 1-2 tsp sriracha or other chili sauce, feel free to adjust according to desired spice 1 1/2 tbsp cornstarch + 3 tbsp room temperature water, mixed into a slurry Bell peppers (optional) Spring onions (optional) 1. In a blender, add in all the ingredients except the cornstarch and water mix. Feel free to adjust according to desired taste. 2. (If not using bell peppers skip to step 3) Heat the sauce pan and add a little oil. Sauté the bell peppers until cooked. 3. In a sauce pan, pour in the puree. 4. Leave to simmer until it boils. Once it boils, add in the cornstarch mixture. Stir until it starts to thicken.Turn off heat and add in the cauliflower. Coat well then sprinkle some spring onions if desired. Crispy cauliflower (the base) 2 small heads of raw cauliflower (around 650g total), makes around 3 cups of florets Canola or other neutral oil, for frying Batter: 1/2 cup all-purpose flour  1 tbsp corn starch  1 tsp baking powder 1 tsp salt 3/4 cup room temp. water Breading: 2 cups Japanese breadcrumbs or breadcrumbs of choice 1. In a bowl, mix the ingredients for the batter until it turns into a smooth, thick consistency. 2. Evenly coat the florets in the batter. You can do this in batches. In another bowl or plate, add in the bread crumbs. 3. One by one, place each cauliflower from the batter into the breadcrumb mixture. Coat well using one hand (this is to avoid messy hands—I usually use one hand for dry and one hand for wet when coating cauliflower). Press down the bread crumbs on the cauliflower. Set aside once coated. Full recipe and steps for the crispy cauli here: https://www.thefoodietakesflight.com/blog/categories/cauliflower-recipes . . . . . . . . . . #thefoodietakesflight
