AD This week I’ve had the pleasure of working w AD  This week I’ve had the pleasure of working with one of my favourite hummus brands @chicpfood ✨ Their hummus is made from wonky veggies to try and reduce waste and their objective is to change people’s attitudes to food prep, consumption & waste.  Naturally I had to make some yummy flatbreads to dip into their delicious hummus. They came out amazing! 🤩  Turmeric, ginger and garlic vegan flatbreads 🫓 
Makes 4 small or 2 large flatbreads (which lasted about 0.5 seconds in my house - in other words - double the recipe 😂)  Ingredients 
* 130g plain flour
* 1 teaspoon baking powder
* 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
* 1 tsp turmeric
* 1 tsp ginger
* 1 tsp basil
* 1 garlic clove, minced
* 1 tablespoons olive oil
* 1/2 teaspoon golden syrup
* 90ml cold water
* Vegetable oil for cooking  Instructions  * In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, turmeric, ginger and basil. Once combined, add the garlic, olive oil, golden syrup and most of the water (save a little to add later if necessary).
* Mix using a silicone spatula to form a dough. If the dough seems a little dry, add the remaining water. Knead for 4-6 minutes then transfer onto a floured work surface, cover with a clean tea towel and leave for 5 minutes.
* Divide the dough into four (or 2 if making larger ones) pieces. Dust each piece in a little flour and roll into a disc. 
* Add two tablespoons of oil to a pan over medium heat. When the oil looks shimmery, add a flatbread and cook until golden on one side, flip and cook until golden on the second side (1 to 2 minutes on each side).
* Once cooked, transfer to a plate and cover with a clean tea towel to keep warm. Continue with the remaining flatbreads and if the pan looks a little dry, add a bit more oil before continuing.  #poweredbyplants #flatbreads #bread #veganuary #hummus
Scrambled Tofu 🌱 YAY or NAY? ✨ Here’s how I Scrambled Tofu 🌱 YAY or NAY? ✨
Here’s how I make mine:  Tofu scramble, a vegan alternative to scrambled eggs. Super easy to make, high in protein and ready in 5 minutes!  Serves 1:
160g silken tofu
1/4 tsp black Himalayan salt (contains sulphur which is what gives this recipe an eggy taste)
1/4 tsp turmeric powder
1/8 tsp ground black pepper
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tbsp vegan butter alternative for frying  Use a fork to crumble and lightly mash the tofu into bite-sized pieces.  Add a little butter to a frying pan and when hot, add the tofu, black salt, turmeric, garlic powder and ground black pepper. Using a wooden spoon, stir until well combined and cook over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve immediately.
