1. Creative Pea’s Chickenfree Meatballs
Ingredients
This is one of the easiest but most delicious recipes that are substitutes for chicken. You will need onion (1), garlic (2-3 cloves) and coriander (10g), all should be finely chopped, salt, pepper and cumin to taste and obviously the Chickenfree mixture from Creative Pea (300g). For those who like it spicy, I will recommend chopped green chilly (1-2) as well. For the sauce, you will need tomato paste, salt, pepper, turmeric, vegetable oil, sweet paprika and chilly powder.
Preparation
First, take out some of the Chickenfree mixture (around 300g) into a mixing bowl. Don’t miss the instructions written on the pack while taking it out. Add sauteed onion, garlic and green chilli into the mixture. Now add salt, pepper, cumin and chopped coriander leaves. Mix well until the mixture becomes a nice dough of all the ingredients. Now make meatballs of the size you prefer. Heat a pan with a small amount of olive oil. Add the meatballs to the hot oil and fry all the sides properly. For the sauce mix tomato paste, vegetable oil, and sweet paprika into a bowl. Add salt, pepper, turmeric and chilly powder to taste. Mix and whisk until the mixture is soft and smooth. Pour the sauce over the meatballs and cook for a while on medium heat. Let it boil for around 10 minutes and you are done. Serve the Chickenfree meatballs hot garnishing with coriander leaves.
2. Yummy Vegan Beeffree Burger
Ingredients
Craving for a tasty vegetable-only burger? Creative Pea has the perfect solution for you. For the ingredients, you need, finely chopped onions, garlic and parsley leaves, 1 teaspoon of cumin powder, olive oil, salt and pepper to taste. Also, prepare burger bread, lettuce, thinly sliced onion rings and tomatoes for serving.
Preparation
Take a mixing bowl and take around 500g of Beefree mixture of Creative Pea. Add all the ingredients you have previously prepared. Mix well and knead it with your hands to make it a dough. Grease your hands with a bit of olive oil and make round-shaped burger patties from the dough. Take a frying pan and brush a little bit of olive oil. Fry the patties on both sides on medium heat until they are crisp and brown. Add them between the burger breads, add tomatoes, lettuce and onion rings. You can also add mayo and other vegetables as per your preference. Serve hot on a plate with sauce.
