Fish, Chips & Mushy Peas
Fish, Chips & Mushy Peas
For those of us that grew up eating fish fingers pre-vegan, sometimes the cravings are real. Even though I think it’s more about the fried batter, crispy french fries and creamy tartar sauce! If you like less processed foods there are tons of recipes out there for fried fish tofu or fried mushrooms (I have yet to try making a recipe) or you can for convenience and nostalgia, grab a bag of vegan fishless filets! The recipes below include homemade tartar sauce and mushy peas. Serving the french fries with malted vinegar is a must!
