Summer Zucchini-Tomato-Tofu Curry 🍅☀️ After a long time, I tried to make vegan food again. It happened like the last time when I made a plant-based dish - the food turned out better than many other non-vegan dishes I’ve made 🤗 Also, I used tofu after a break of several years. ️ Until now, I haven’t thought much of the taste of tofu. This time, I gave a chance to a brand I hadn’t tried before and which was, let’s say, quite promising. After tasting the food, I decided that tofu could definitely be put into recipes sometimes because of its health benefits! About the recipe: 💃helps to loose weight and fight with cravings due to high fiber and vegetable content 🍗if tofu isn’t your thing, you can replace it with baked or lightly fried chicken 🍅you can replace yellow cherry tomatoes with regular red tomatoes ☀️the recipe is perfect for the current zucchini and tomato-rich period 🙌 I promise the food tastes better than it looks (in my opinion, it looks a bit boring 🥱) ️ 🍽️ quantity: 8-10 servings For roasting: 800-1000 kg zucchini 3 onions 🧅 400 g (cherry) tomatoes 🍅 400 g tofu (or chicken) 3 tbsp olive oil 4 tsp cumin 3 tsp coriander salt Roast in the oven at 190 degrees for about 25 minutes or until the vegetables are browned. Sauce: 3 tbsp tomato paste 2 tbsp olive oil 50 g grated ginger 1 tsp salt juice of 1 🍋 3 tsp cumin chili to taste 2 tsp coriander 500 ml thicker coconut milk Add the sauce ingredients to a pan, stir and simmer for about 3 minutes, finally add the coconut milk and stir. Pour the vegetables into the sauce, stir and simmer for another 5 minutes. Serve with Thai basmati 🍚 #weightloss #vegetabledish #zucchinirecipe #veganfood #veganrecipes #nutritionadvice #nutritionist #vegancurry #curry

Sugar rush or sugar crash? 🤯 Let's talk sweet stuff! 🍭 Navigating the world of sweeteners can be a real challenge! That is why I decided to dove deep into over 20 different types, from classic white sugar to exotic palm sugar. 🌴 Key takeaways: Excessive sugar, no matter the type, can lead to health issues. ⚠️ Natural doesn't always equal healthy. 🍎 Blood sugar spikes depend on various factors. 📈 Finding the "healthiest" sugar is tricky. 🤷‍♀️ Wanna know more about sucrose, fructose, honey, stevia, and the rest? Want to know which sugar is the least processed and most natural? 🤔 👀 Click the link in bio! 📚 #sugar #sweetener #health #wellness #nutrition #bloodsugar #healthylifestyle #food #foodie #diabetes #weightloss #sugarfree #natural #artificial #sweettooth #explorepage #instahealth #nutritionfacts #diet #healthyfood

What is the Best Oil for Deep Frying? 🍳🍳 Actually, almost all of the oils listed below can be used for frying, but not for deep frying which happens at 175-190°C (350-375°F). In general, you shouldn’t actually need to go above 190°C for frying and deep frying, and most oils can withstand this temperature. 🫒Olive oil Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) is the king of olive oils. It is a unrefined oil obtained from the first mechanical pressing of olives, which means it retains all the flavors and beneficial substances. A very good choice for salad dressings (e.g., olive oil, lemon juice, salt). Extra virgin olive oil typically has a smoke point of around 374°F (190°C). Virgin Olive Oil: Similar to EVOO, but with a slightly higher acidity and a more restrained flavor. ⛔Suitable for deep frying? Both are suitable for frying but not for deep frying. 🥑Avocado oil Avocado oil is a rising star in the world of oils! Refined Avocado Oil is rather with neutral taste and has a high smoke point (toxic substances start to form) up to 270°C (520°F). Unrefined or virgin avocado oils have a smoke point of 250°C. It typically has a slightly grassy flavor, similar to the taste of avocados themselves. This flavor profile makes it particularly suitable for salad dressings and drizzling over finished dishes. ✅Suitable for deep frying? YES, both are suitable for deep frying and baking and you won't get a distinctive taste from it in your fried food. 🥥Coconut oil Refined coconut oil is tasteless and odorless, contains fewer health-beneficial substances, and has a slightly higher smoke point, 400-450°F (204-232°C). Unrefined coconut oil is more suitable for cooking and frying at lower heat, i.e., up to 175°C, and gives food a delicate coconut flavor.  ✅Suitable for deep frying? Refined coconut oil is generally suited for deep frying, unrefined coconut oil rather not. 🥜Peanut oil Peanut oil is a popular choice for cooking due to its high smoke point, typically around 450°F (232°C), making it ideal for high-temperature cooking methods. ✅Suitable for frying? YES For more, read the full article (link in bio). #cookingoils #avocadooil #oliveoil #coconutoil #canola #deepfry
