!! JACKFRUIT FISH CAKES aka CRABBY PATTIES !!

Texturally the jackfruit was spot on a little bit of a mind f*ck, to be honest. I think the next time I make these I need to add another sheet or two of Nori (Seaweed) to really impart that ocean, fishy flavor. This was a relatively easy recipe and didn't take up too much time on the prep side either. I tried half the batch deep fried and the other Air fried. I can't lie the deep-fried version was a winner. The crunch factor from the double-dipped Kellogs Corn flakes crumbs spiced with paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, thyme, Cayenne pepper, ground-up toasted fennel, coriander and cumin. The smells that came out of that Air fryer believe me people should be bottled and sold as an air freshener. The air fried version was crunchy too don't get me wrong but I'm a complete sucker for deep-fried food. For the sauce, I made a super quick and simple lemon garlic mayo. Just bash up a garlic clove in a pestle and mortar with half the juice of a lemon add in some mayo and BOOM.

I would recommend the Brand that is sold at Dischem stores if anyone wants to try out Jackfruit. Just tastes better in my opinion. I think its a Thai brand if I'm not mistaken and the brand I used today is from Sri Lanka.

I'm really looking forward to finishing up all the recipes and perfecting them for a downloadable E-book. Thank you for all the continued love and support I am really grateful for every share and every like.

Nothing like a plate of Falafels and Hummus for lunch.
The texture on these falafels! Crispy on the outside and light and fluffy on the inside.

I was so stoked to make this dish as everything but the chickpeas, microgreens, and spices came straight out of our veggie patch.

I'm slowly but surely trying to compile a recipe book/pdf and would like to know what would you guys like to see more of?

So I've been trying to make the perfect plant-based Cinnamon Rolls. This one, in particular, was made with a coconut oil filling instead of the butter and the results lead to one ultra fu***ng sticky filling. Not too bad but the hunt continues to find the perfect plant-based butter.
