Banana Mousse

11 11 2008

Hi everyone!

For our second recipe here on WTGV we selected a dessert that has turned out really well. This is also a Medium level of difficulty but we promise to put on one really easy the next time.

For this recipe you’ll need:

Ingredients (for about 4 persons, or 2, if you really like sweets):

2 bananas

a hand full of raisins

1/5 cup of soy milk approximately (we use a chicory syrup sweetened one)

50 ml of soy cream

1 tea spoon of agar-agar flakes

2 table spoons of rasped coconut

1 table spoon of cinnamon

1 soy yogurt (natural flavor)

2 table spoons of fructose

And you are ready to go…

How to do it:

1 – Start by placing the agar-agar flakes into 2 table spoons of cold water. Let them soak for 10 minutes.

2 – Chop the raisins into small pieces and put them into the milk inside a pan.

3 – Mash the 2 bananas and add them to the milk. Heat the mixture until it boils, and stir it frequently at low fire, for about 5 minutes.

4 – Add the soy cream, throw in the coconut and keep stirring for another 5 mins.

6 – Add the already soaked agar-agar to the mix. Keep stirring the mixture until it thickens.

7 – Turn off the fire, join the cinnamon and the yogurt and pour the mixture into a blender (you may also consider using a hand blender).

8 – Finally mix in the fructose and pour it all out into your dessert bowls.

9 – Let it cool before placing in the refrigerator for about 2 hours.

Enjoy it ;)

(So yeah… we still haven’t taken pictures, but we are working on it. They will be added next time we repeat the recipe)





Tofu Curry with Basmati and Cabage

2 11 2008

Here we are to share our first recipe. It was our dinner last night, we hope you enjoy it.

This one it’s not hard to make but you’ll need some cooking skills so we’d say that the difficulty degree is Medium and will take about One Hour to cook.

Things you’ll need to cook this for 2 persons:

1/4 cabage

2 hands full of basmati rice

1 carrot

2 tomatoes

4 green bean pods

4 slices of tofu

1/4 green pepper

1/4 red pepper

150g of cajún

100g of shredded coconut

1/2 pack of soy cream

mint

saffron

ginger

salt

olive oil

And that’s about it.

How to do it:

Get the 1/4 cabage wash it well and slice it really thin. Leave it.

Get a small pot and fill it in with the 2 hands of basmati and cover it with water (be careful, it must have only a little more than the rice volume). Turn up the heat and cover it. Let it boil and turn the heat down. It will be ready when you start to see little holes in it. By then just turn off the heat and let it covered.

Wash well all vegetables. Peal of the peppers, the tomatoes, the carrot. Chop the peppers and the tomatoes into little cubes. Do the same with the tofu. Slice the green beans thin. Do the same with the cajún. Put the green beans to boil with a little salt. Shred the carrot. Once the green beans are cooked just take the exceding water and add them to the rice  together with the shreded carrot.

Get a pan and lay the green and red pepper, cover them with olive oil, let it fry for a while, once it starts to smell strongly put in the tomato, stirr it up, let it fry a little than add the tofu. Stirr it and add the cajún. Then the shreded coconut and the saffron. Stirr it all up. Add the 1/2 soy cream and the ginger. Stirr it ( if you feel like the soy cream you added just ain’t enough, add some soy milk to the mix).Finally, chop the mint and add to the tofu.

There you go. You can serve it. It’s done.

Bon appetit everyone!

(We’d like to add a photo, but they’ve be taken with our mobiles and so they’ve turned out awful. We hope the next recipes get illustrated.)
