Come join the Vegan Home Cooks!

Participation is really easy, just take a picture of what you cooked today and post it, no recipes needed.


This is a public forum for a discord server of friends who are all vegans and cook at home for their families.

We are here to share some inspiration, to see what others are doing and to stay engaged in something that is both our hobby and a required task.

This forum is not a "food porn" community, a recipe book or a place to teach you how to cook. It is a place for people who already cook to meet other people like themselves and provide on topic support and conversation as much as long distance friends on the internet can do. We are doing show and tell about what we made and we don't care about its instagram worthiness.

Veganism isn’t a diet but I have to eat every day. This is for the vegan home cooks. Anything non vegan will be deleted.


Rules

1. Be Vegan.

If it is not vegan it doesn’t belong here… or anywhere.

2. Post home cooking.

No restaurant or fast food. This is what every other vegan space is about and we don’t want to promote any large or small business tyrants.

3. Join the Discord

We’re an active community of vegan home cooks that like to talk about what we are cooking today.

4. Do not make any rude comments or digs at anyone’s food, cooking style, specific diet, restrictions or technique.

While we are all cooks, we all have different requirements and we’re not asking for help, we are doing show and tell.

5. Do not use trademarked brands

Use generic names. We’re cooking with tvp not whatever business brands it and we’re not trying to turn comrades into billboards. No plant-based vegan-pandering capitalist crap like Impossible, Beyond, Dairy-company owned “vegan” cheese.

6. Do not ask for a recipe without otherwise engaging the OP (No posts that are just “recipe?”)

We are not food bloggers. Sometimes we're excited to share and will tell you the recipes we used but this isn't required. Instead try doing your own research and tell us what you learned and we can talk about it.

7. Careful with making unasked for suggestions.

Sometimes we like to hear suggestions but you should be nice about it and know the person you are making suggestions to. We are in the discord and you can get to know us that way. If you are just a visitor from the fediverse, this isn’t the place for you to start telling other people what to do.

8. Grown Ups Only.

Cooking for our kids is great, Acting like one is not. While this isn't a community for adult material we expect everyone who participates to be an adult and act like one. Please follow the Anarchists Code of Conduct. No profane usernames allowed.

Soybean curry (vegantheoryclub.org)
submitted 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) by josie@vegantheoryclub.org to c/homecooks@vegantheoryclub.org
 

Looong time lurker, first time posting here. I used ChatGPT for soybean recipes and this is one of the dishes it came up with:

1 cup soybeans

1 inch piece of ginger, grated

2 pureed tomatoes

1 tbsp curry powder

1 tsp turmeric powder

1 teaspoon cumin

1/2 cup coconut milk

Recipe also listed onion and garlic as ingredients but garlic causes my GERD to flare up and I don't really like the taste of onions so I left them both out.

I pre-cooked the soybeans before preparing the curry paste. I cooked the tomato puree, cumin, ginger, turmeric, and curry powder in a splash of water for about 5 minutes until it thickened and then added the soybeans, stirring them until completely coated. I poured in the coconut milk and let it simmer for about 10 minutes before seasoning and serving it.

Not pictured is the brown rice I served it with.

Overall a relatively quick, simple and nice tasting dish.

Eyy, this is similar to some stuff I like to make! I add a bunch of veggies tho. You need more than this in a balanced diet

[–] Nimrod@lemm.ee 1 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

I was thinking the same thing. This is a solid base, but it’s garden season, so if you can’t find someone trying to get rid of squash, you need new friends. Snatch up whatever veggies are cheap/in season, sear them and mix them right in. Looks to be enough sauce to coat a hearty portion of veggies.

I mean this is literally a one off I made using a ChatGPT recipe just to see how it would turn out, I normally add other stuff too but the recipe did not call for anything else. Once in a while doing something like this is no big deal.

[–] Nimrod@lemm.ee 1 points 4 weeks ago

I hear ya! Nothing wrong with following the recipe. But I figured since you were already taking out the alliums, you could beef that plate up with some fresh squash! (I’m also on a mission to eat all the squash that my garden grows this year, so I’ve got squash on the brain lately)

Friendly reminder to not be critical or give unsolicited advice. We don't want people to feel like they can't share whatever they are eating.

[–] Nimrod@lemm.ee 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Aye, good call. My bad. Didn’t mean to come off judgy!

Thanks friend!

[–] Arcanepotato@vegantheoryclub.org 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Hey, let's not criticize what people are eating here.

[–] Boomkop3@reddthat.com 1 points 3 weeks ago

Oh it looks delicious! To each their own

[–] hamid@vegantheoryclub.org 3 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

I also avoid onions and garlic in all my food, my partner is allergic to alliums and I just got used to not having them in. This looks awesome! I love regular soybeans and I wish I could get them pre skinned and split around where I live

[–] josie@vegantheoryclub.org 2 points 4 weeks ago

Thank you! We normally do not get them where I live so I picked some up as soon as I saw them.

[–] Arcanepotato@vegantheoryclub.org 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

That photo is calling to me...it looks so comforting.

[–] josie@vegantheoryclub.org 1 points 3 weeks ago

Thanks! Any kind of curry is definitely a comfort food to me.
