What is Veganism ?

Veganism is abstaining from use of animal products or products derived from animals.People who follow this policy are called Vegan.Well planned vegan diets are considered appropriate for all stages of life. The components of a whole foods plant-based vegan diet include legumes, whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and nuts—along with little to no consumption of refined foods and animal products. Studies have shown that it has helped many people in treating Type 2 diabetes. I believe it is a personal choice .Follow it if it benefits you.

What is the Shhhhhh Cooking theme this month?

For January our host was Radha who suggested the theme Vegan recipes . I was so happy when i heard the theme. Check out her delicious Vegan Jackfruit Kofta Curry .My partner for the theme is Priya VJ who is an awesome blogger. She gave me two secret ingredients Rice flour and Sesame Oil and I gave her Lemon and Ginger. My humble recipe is Crispy tofu and green bean stir fry(Vegan). Priya whipped up delicious Vegan Peas Poha.

Notes

  1. You can use corn starch instead of rice flour. I did not have corn starch hence used rice flour.
  2. Add Red chili and garlic paste enhances the taste so do not skip it.
  3. You can bake the tofu instead of frying it. Completely your choice.
  4. I have not added salt as Tamari is used here. You may add soya sauce if you do not have Tamari.
  5. It is a completely Vegan dish.
