Vegetable Chickpea Potato Soup

We don’t eat this mild creamy vegetable soup from Vegan Richa’s website too often but when we do, we really like it: for once nobody reaches for any spicy condiments. The only extra was the fresh wild garlic that I picked a few days ago and some rolls.

I’ve used this recipe but I made the soup in a normal saucepan:

Spicy cauliflower stir-fry

What I love about Chinese food is that it mostly seems to have just right kind of spiciness and in your face aromas that all three of us seem to be drawn to. I really should cook more Chinese dishes.

I’ve made this particular one before but more as a side dish. Today I doubled the quantities, used frozen cauliflower and leaves, added tofu slices and a small amount of Thai basil (because it needed to go) and we had a fantastic main dish, dominated by the aromas of Doubanjiang, garlic and ginger.

Chickpea and broccoli curry with tofu on rice

The other day I stumbled across an old post about food I had eaten at a vegetarian restaurant some years ago. My companion’s food looked so good that I took a photo as inspiration to make something like that at home. I had forgotten all about it but finally the day had come! 😅

I remember the meal as aromatic but not overly spicy, very German. So I looked for a recipe for a chickpea curry that would fit that bill for me and opted for the linked one below. When I found the thick brick like tofu bars at the Asian supermarket I knew I had what I wanted to create some fat slices to be fried in some oil. There was also some guesswork involved because I have no idea what kind of brown sauce was used on the original dish. Since it looked very much like a glaze I opted for Crema di Balsamico.

I forgot to add salt, to both rice and the curry 🙄 but thankfully that was easy to fix on the plate and it was a good meal. The Crema di Balsamico worked superbly on this. My co-eaters decided to also add some hot sauce but that’s just them…
