How-To: Make Vegan Curry with Alex Olson

Ойын-сауық

Pro skater Alex Olson went vegetarian after an unfortunate incident with a lizard at the age of thirteen, and now he's in the MUNCHIES Test Kitchen to show us how to make a vegan Indian curry. This coconut milk-based curry is spicy, delicious, and filling, even without meat.

    I mean, he did a pretty amazing job here. After all, it's amazing that he somehow comes off as less professional than a guy who sang though half the recipe, and more tired out from cooking 1 dish than the guy who prepped a better curry with 2 sides and a shake.

    Tomato paste (if used) and the spices must be added to a mix of onion, ginger, garlic and chilies to fry in a moderate amount of oil before adding anything else! That is the base for every Indian curry.

    Nah man, I like vegan food and this is a shit recipe. You need all the flavors to cook and sear more in a dry pan (with oil, not water-based shit like coconut). Brown the spices, the onions, the tomato paste so they get seared and tasty before you add the liquid.

    Compared to the last curry episode, the curry itself looks less well executed, and the presentation seemed a lot less professional. And considering that both are vegan curries executed by amateur chefs, it seems reasonable to compare them.

    He isn't a chef, we should probably know that, its how he does it. The series isn't a how to from a chef, they are featuring a bunch of reg folks and the meals they cook. The comment is under this vid, but there have been a series of vegan recipes on this channel that gets a lot of hate. Point taken however. NB. No 'recipe' can be done wrong if it isn't a traditional recipe, that's the beauty of cooking, if in the end it tastes good, and is good.. then its a win. We humans love the boxes we make ourselves slaves to.

    Looks good but I also add to mine: diced carrots red lentils chick peas Also I used to cook it like this, adding the spices after the liquid and only recently started actually frying the spices in oil before adding the liquid and holy shit it makes a huge huge difference in flavour. You can save money and use way less of the spices if you just fry them first!

    Some time ago i lost a bet to a vegan friend of mine, and had to be vegan for at least two months. I am now 8 weeks in and im starting to regret it less by the day. Im not doing it because i care for the animals or some noble stuff like that, i just think/feel that it is alot more healthy. I don't know what makes omnivores and vegans hate each others so much, after all it's just a dietary choice.
