RAISED VEG PIE

30 January 2020 by Lisette Kreischer 6 Comments

This baby was one of the first recipes we posted on this blog. And one loved by many, so we felt it was time for a repost in case you have missed it. This raised veg pie is a classie English hot-water-dough fort loaded with a juicy filling of savory vegetables, shrooms and crispy tofu. Just perfect when served with mashed potato and/or a green salad. A good glass of dark beer would be nice too. We are really getting in the mood for savory and sweet pies at the moment ’cause this coming Monday we will start shooting for the best vegan baking book this world has ever seen ;-). Inspired and created by Maartje, photographed by Lisette. Hopefully on the market this summer!

Serves 4-6

INGREDIENTS

300 g + 2 tbsp all purpose flour
150 ml (2/3 cup) hot water
90 g plant based butter
1 tsp salt
oil for frying
300 g tofu, padded dry and cubed
400 g button mushrooms, quartered
1 big leek
, finely chopped
2 tbsp flour
1 garlic clove
200 ml (1 cup) beer
3 tbsp shoyu or soy sauce
freshly grated nutmeg to taste
freshly ground black pepper and salt to taste
1 tsp dried thyme
splash of plant based milk

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat the oven to 185 C/365 F. Pour hot water in a pan. Add butter and let melt. Add 300 g of flour and salt. Mix until it forms a dough. Knead with your hands (yes it is hot, be a bad ass) really short, just until the dough is even. Press the dough into a pie mould (you don’t have to grease the mould). Safe a piece of dough for later to cover the pie with. Heat a generous splash of oil in a frying pan. Add the tofu cubes and fry until a little golden crust appears. Take them out of the pan. Add some more oil to the pan if needed, and fry the mushrooms on high heat until goldenbrown. Add leek and fry some more. Put the tofu back in the pan. Add 2 tbsp of flour and stir for a minute or so. Next add garlic, beer and shoyu/soy sauce and heat until the liquid is thickened. Add the seasonings. Transfer the veg-mix to the prepared pie mould. Roll out the saved piece of dough and cover the pie with it. Make it look good. To make it nice and shiny, brush a little bit of plant based milk on top. Bake for 45-55 min until fully baked and golden brown.


RAISED VEG PIE

Zin in een echte Engelse Pie? Dit fort van heet-water-deeg zit tjokvol met een sappige vulling van hartige groenten, shrooms en krokante tofu. Serveer met aardappelpuree en/of groene salade. Een lekker bruinbiertje zou niet misstaan.

Voor 4-6 personen

INGREDIENTEN

300 g + 2 el bloem
150 ml heet water (net van de kook af)
90 g plantaardige bakboter
1 afgestreken tl zout
olie om in te bakken
1 blok tofu van 300 g, drooggedept en in blokjes
400 g champignons, in vieren
1 grote prei, fijngesneden
1 teen knoflook, grof gehakt
200 ml bier
3 el shoyu of sojasaus (géén ketjap)
versgeraspte nootmuskaat naar smaak
versgemalen zwarte peper en zout naar smaak
1 tl gedroogde tijm
scheutje plantaardige melk

BEREIDING

Verwarm de oven voor op 185 graden C. Doe het hete water in een pan en smelt daarin de boter. Voeg bloem en zout toe. Roer tot het samenkomt en kneed met je handen (yes, dit is heet, dus wees even stoer) heel kort tot er een mooi gelijkmatig deeg ontstaat. Bekleed een bakvorm met het deeg (je hoeft de bakvorm niet in te vetten). Houd wat van het deeg achter om de pie later mee af te dekken. Verhit vervolgens een flinke plens olie in een koekenpan op hoog vuur. Voeg de tofu toe en bak flink aan, tot deze een lichtbruin korstje krijgt. Haal de blokjes uit de pan, en voeg zonodig nog wat extra olie toe aan de pan. Bak nu de champignons ook flink aan. Ze moeten mooi goudbruin worden. Voeg vervolgens de prei toe en bak even mee. Doe de tofu terug in de pan. Voeg bloem toe en bak nog kort door. Voeg vervolgens knoflook, bier en shoyu toe. Laat even goed doorkoken zodat het vocht indikt. Breng op smaak met de kruiden. Doe het groentemengsel over in de deegkorst. Rol het achtergebleven stuk deeg uit en dek de pie ermee af. Maak er wat moois van! Bestrijk het deeg met wat plantaardige melk voor een lekker shiny effect en bak in ca. 45-55 minuten goudbruin en gaar.

Presenting a killer kitchen for which NO ONE has to be killed and EVERYONE gains!

We have a new cookbook 🔥 Written for Sam and he We have a new cookbook 🔥
Written for Sam and her pig companions @mymomsam. Because with the arrival of spring, we can almost smell the roasted coals again and what mostly lies on the grill above; the creatures that wanted so much to live. And that lights the fire in our hearts and gets us going. So Maartje pulled out her knives and Lisette her camera to fill the pages of... VLAM IN DE PLANT (Veg on fire). A happy book with an activist touch rich with delicious plant based recipes, a beautiful foreword by @karensoeters and an ode to dear Sam.

We discovered the cuisine of plants years ago and have been vegan for the animals for more than 38 years combined. It was a wonderful bonus that this way of life also turned out to be a lot better for the earth and ourselves. What we did not immediately expect was that this cuisine brought us huge taste explosions! We became big and strong on the power of plants and seduced and enticed by those wonderful flavours and textures. Meanwhile, we feel it is our mission to bring out the potential of this cuisine.

The popularity of BBQ has been skyrocketing for years and we felt it was time to once and for all say bye bye to the for many, boring image of veggies and take plants to great heights by putting them on fire. The plant based kitchen deserves the spotlight. And the BBQ is a great tool to make vegetables incredibly flavoursome. By cooking veg on the BBQ with the right spices, you enrich your kitchen with insane flavours and contribute to less suffering at the same time. So be tempted and seduced by the abundance of vegetables, grains, legumes, nuts, seeds, mushrooms, weeds, fruits and herbs and fire up those plants.

Available to order now at all (online) bookstores in The Netherlands, via link in bio and @maartjeborst.

Vlam in de Plant could not have come about without Pig Sam, Karen Soeters, Stichting Melief, House of Animals, Diewertje van Wering and, of course, Kosmos Publishers. We are extremely grateful to all of them. ❤️🔥🙏🏼

FISH-FREE MEDITERRANEAN ORZO This delicious orzo FISH-FREE MEDITERRANEAN ORZO

This delicious orzo dish with roasted vegetables takes little time to make and is bursting with flavour. The tuna-like flavour of @goodcatchfoods Fish Free Tuna by our friend @dereksarno goes well with savoury flavour bombs like olives and capers, and the creamy orzo provides an excellent stage for this goodness.

Hungry already? Recipe now up on the blog (link in bio).

While we are up here we wanted to thank all of you who have been cooking from MAN.EAT.PLANT. We never expected this book to be such a hit, but it is.

Ok ok, it might be raining tofu & beans here in Th Ok ok, it might be raining tofu & beans here in The Netherlands, so maybe it is not the best time to fire up that BBQ and start roasting the hell out of those veggies. But we pray for sunshine and when that sun starts shining tofu, seitan, tempeh and mushrooms will hit a bowl of marinade and will be roasted like there is no tomorrow. Link in bio for our free @mymomsam E-book containing 5 delicious plant-powered recipes for on the BBQ and for all to enjoy!

The time we've all been waiting for is finally her The time we've all been waiting for is finally here. The summer family BBQ! The best time for a good toast under the sun, and a tasty roast too! Roasted tempeh and grilled tofu topped with tasty sauces are the perfect ingredients to set the summer vibes we’ve been looking forward to.

And yes, you read right. In the family summer BBQ we imagine, animals are more than welcome to attend as long as they are enjoying the moment with us, and not there as a sacrifice for us.

Sam and her family would be the first to say thanks for leaving meat behind this summer - and hopefully forever more! Sam is a mother of 251 piglets, of which only 9 are here today due to the industry. She became one of the lucky ones in February 2021 when she was rescued while pregnant with her little ones by @meliefanimalsanctuary. In wanting to show the spirit of those behind the isolated walls of the meat industry, House of Animals will be launching a documentary about Sam’s story and those of her piglets in 2022.

This summer and all days to come, let’s honor Sam and all the souls we’ve lost as a result of the industry by eating plant-based, succulent BBQs! Inspired by Sam’s story, House of Animals created a recipe book with the help of us, @maartjeborst and @lisettekreischer, which will make your summer glimmer with taste, rich flavors and joy. Download it for free on the website @mymomsam (link in our bio).

SUNNY SIDES UP Drum rolls, please! FAMILY.EAT.PL SUNNY SIDES UP

Drum rolls, please!

FAMILY.EAT.PLANT. has hit planet Earth and here is the first recipe to go online! And certainly not the least! Yes, we know, what you see here in the pic looks suspiciously like a sandwich with sunny-side-up eggs. But none of that!

What you see are peaches (or apricots) with a cheesy sauce. Maartje’s father used to make this recipe often on the weekend. Super easy, super yummy.

You can keep it plain and simple by just making the cheesy sauce, and prep the toast with the sauce and peaches, or you can go wild and throw some slices of vegan ham on there.

Recipe now up on the blog (link in bio).
