Vegan Filipino Crab Cake Omelette (Tortang Alimasag)

RG @ Astig Vegan — Sat, 12 Mar 2016 08:00:25 +0000

Every word in this dish screams NOT VEGAN: Filipino. Crab. Cake. Omelette. I thought I had to say bye bye to this dish forever. I should have known better that almost anything nowadays could be veganized -including Filipino Crab Cake Omelette. Don’t be mistaken though, Filipino Crab Cake Omelette or “Tortang Alimasag” is neither just crab...

Vegan Longsilog, Part 1: Garlic Fried Rice

RG @ Astig Vegan — Sat, 09 May 2015 18:13:10 +0000

Lately I’ve been more into green smoothies for breakfast, but that doesn’t stop me from eating hearty breakfast food like rice, “eggs”, and “sausages”. I just have them later in the day. Besides, having breakfast food for lunch or dinner seems fun. I always get giddy when I see the words “breakfast food served all day”...

Every time my sister is in town, she has only one request. She would ask me to make”Ginataang Kalabasa at Sitaw“, or “Squash and Long Beans in Coconut Milk”. Over time, her request has become frequent and automatic that I don’t bother to ask her. Recently, we celebrated her birthday and sure enough, it was the vegan dish on the...

Asian Greens Soup with Squash, Tofu, & Enoki Mushrooms

RG @ Astig Vegan — Wed, 01 Apr 2015 18:47:45 +0000

Living in San Francisco, I feel lucky for having many vegan options when dining out. One of these options is my favorite soup called “Braised Pea Leaves” with pumpkin, pressed tofu, and salted chili broth served at a restaurant called Mission Chinese. Mission Chinese is a quaint restaurant in the Mission district. Some people frown upon this place, calling it...

Aside from this blog, I also share my recipes on my YouTube channel. At first I thought I would have an instant slew of subscribers. Little did I know that it takes a lot of hard work to produce a shoot and there’s no guarantee if somebody, aside from family and friends who I urged to check...

RG @ Astig Vegan — Sun, 05 Oct 2014 19:44:32 +0000

In this video, I’m going to show you a vegan version of Sisig, a Filipino dish traditionally made with pig parts.

This vegan version takes 30 minutes or less, especially if you’re going to use high...

I’ve featured few versions of vegan Filipino Menudo recipes on this this blog-and I’m going to add yet another version that I hope you could try. This time, I’m featuring two ingredients that would create the pork flavor and texture without the pork. No, it’s not just adding a fake pork product in the mix. You could,...

Vegan Mung Bean Stew or Munggo Guisado (“moong-goh gee-sah-doh”) is the perfect introductory dish to those who are still learning about Filipino vegan food. It’s suitable for two reasons. First, this hearty dish traditionally has mostly vegetables, making the vegan version still taste highly familiar even to big Filipino meat eaters. Second, it’s packed with...
