  • I've made this recipe twice in the past week, it is absolutely banging and could not be easier to make.

    Belatedly just done this, definitely a winner. I think freezing Tofu (and then defrosting, obviously) helps to get a lot of the water out so it soaks up all the other flavours.

    Didn't bother with food processor, just diced things, and it didn't take too long.

    Tried Oatly Creme Fraiche, was okay but not massively impressed, anyone got a good recommendation?

  • Oatly Creme Fraiche

    Yeah it’s basically like a vegan mayonnaise (looking at ingredients). Sometimes a more sour yoghurt type thing is better but I haven’t found a perfect alt personally

  • Is the Creme Fraiche super sweet? I find most vegan creamy stuff is shit to cook with because it's too sweet for savoury stuff.
    That tofu looks great as well, will have to give it a go!
    Whilst we're on the topic, this stuff is the best tofu I've ever had I think. I buy it from Tian Tian Market in Canning Town. It's a bit more expensive than Cauldron etc but it's way better. They do a super firm version as well that's great in a stir fry type thing.

  • Snap, made this tonight too! Pretty impressed flavour wise, very simple to make, but a bit on the soft side overall, maybe will add some lentils to give it a bit more texture next time.
