Vegan Fried Chicken
1/2 cup hot water
1 tablespoon vegan "chicken" bouillon powder
1/2 cup textured soy protein
1/2 cup vegan pancake mix, dry
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
other seasonings, to taste
2/3 cup crushed cornflakes
oil for frying
1. Put hot water in a bowl. Stir in bouillon powder. Soak textured soy protein in this liquid for 10 minutes.
2. Mix just enough pancake mix in with the textured soy to make a cohesive mixture that can be formed into patties. Mix in salt, pepper, and any other seasonings you want to use.
3. Put crushed cornflakes in a plate. Dip patties into cornflakes, covering them completely.
4. Heat some oil on medium heat in a heavy frying pan. Fry patties in oil until crispy, turning occasionally.
Serve with a creamy sauce, and mashed or oven-fried potatoes.'
SO HOW'D IT GO?
This really scratched the itch! We used this for gravy bowls at lunch and turned around and made it for dinner the following night! :D
I am soooo sorry! This comment was for a different recipe. :( please have both deleted if possible.

I made this again for a big Father's Day dinner with veg and non veg (including my dad who is a Texan Die-hard meat eater). Everyone loved it, and my dad ate it and didn't complain! My Mother in Law couldn't stop raving about it for hours. It was great. We will keep this recipe around for sure.
not too bad. Would like to try it with a tempera coat instead of corn flakes next time. I used flour and egg replacer instead of pancake mix.
In my experience, the chunks are quite large and are good for things like sauces, or "chicken" dishes you know, butter "chicken" etc...I prefer granules for patties...but it's a personal thing.
I have a question about theTSP. I'm ready to order it online. Do I want the chunks or granules. I think the chunks would make better patties but I'm not sure. Any opinions?
Couldn't get them to hold together. Delicious though!
we've tried making this several times.. with real mashed potatoes and with potato flakes.. it takes great but we can't get it to stick together!?!?! HELP! we've tried adding oil to the mix.. extra potatoes.. water.. and nothing will keep the pieces together.. we LOVE the recipe.. and really want to be able to make at least nuggets out of it.. it ends up crumbling! :'( any suggestions?
holy snap. i just had to pinch myself to make sure i was still alive. i'm fairly certain this is the best thing i've eaten in a while. a very long while.
unbelievable!
i cooked some organic red potatoes (peeled) and mashed them with some rice milk, earth balance and fresh organic dill, and herbamare provencale and pepper.
mixed them with the tsp, added a bit extra of the faux chicken bouillon, and shaped into little nuggets. i coated them with panko breadcrumbs for extra crunch, also because i didn't have cornflakes on hand...
i fried them, but would like to try baking too, to see if it's as crispy and delicious...more healthy, for sure! :)
once out of the pan, i put some homemade dip on them - 1/2 c yogurt (soy if you please), 1/3 c vegenaise grapeseed, 3/4 tsp garlic powder, 3/4 tsp onion granules, some nutritional yeast, and some fresh dill and some grated cucumber. delicious!
i am so excited for hubby to come home and try this for dinner. maybe it will even entice my two year old to eat SOMETHING other than almond butter toast. ;)
yum yum delicious I couldn't believe how great this was, I used the recipe as is, excpet spiced it up instead with aromat(a swiss spice), chili powder , and cayenne pepper, then I cooked it up, and put the finish product on to a wrap and topped it with Salsa and dijon mustard.
