120 calories in a tablespoon of olive oil buh. 100% fat. Don't get a sweet, sweet bod like mine supping on that sh1t. | |

If you are making a chilli (meat one) you fry the meat and onions with a number of spices before adding the other bits. So kind of just swapped for quorn. Tastes lovely tbf | |

Yep. I'd do the onions myself before adding the Quorn though as you don't really need to seal or render down the Quorn mince in the way you do meat mince, it's more just for adding flavour to fry it off in the onion and spices first. | |

Speaking on behalf of beanpoles everywhere, we need all the oily goodness we can get. But what do you use to get those muscles all shiny, more Fry-light? | |

What's the difference between a buffalo and a bison? You can't wash your hands in a buffalo. | |

Bean chillis are what makes eating less meat enjoyable. | |

Not wanting to start WW3 again but are you a vegan in the truest sense (no leather belts / shoes, honey, wool, gelatin etc) or just adopt a plant-based diet? I noticed a lot of people claiming to do Veganuary were actually adopting plant-based diets, rather than living a vegan lifestyle. I went vegan for 9 months in around 2011, found it really hard, but then there was a lot less choice then, especially when eating out. | |

Of course I am. Would be a bit weird if I wasn’t with my post history. Only thing I sadly still have to make an exception for are my acid reflux meds* *now that’s how you start WW3. | |

Fry lite will eventually end up ruining all of your frying pans, it is evil stuff that is a small amount of oil emulsified in water and it’s the emulsifiers burning to your pan that ruin them | |
