1 tbsp cocoa powder
1 tbsp almond butter
dash of cinnamon
1 handful of ice

#6 Oyster “Chicken” Bites
200g oyster mushrooms (7oz)
for the flour mixture:
90g flour (¾ cup)
3 tbsp corn starch
1 tbsp nutritional yeast
1 ½ tsp sugar
½ tsp vegetable broth powder or salt
¼ tsp onion powder (and, or garlic powder)
¼ tsp black pepper
½ tsp baking powder
for the milk mixture:
180ml vegan cream or milk (¾ cup)
2 tbsp white wine vinegar
1 tbsp sriracha (or do 1 tsp for less spice)
also:
up to 60g (1 cup) panko bread crumbs, added to the bowl 1 few tbsp at a time
vegetable oil, enough to fill your pot about 5-7 cm (2-3 inch) deep
NOTES:
- bring the oil to medium high to start with
- test the temp with a wooden spoon, once you can see bubbles forming around it, it’s ready. If you have a thermometer, you’re looking for 160-175C, about 325F
- once it reaches this temp, i lower the heat to medium to prevent it from getting too hot
you don’t want your oil to be smoking! (180C or higher)
- always take a few steps back when deep frying, add the bites carefully!
- i only deep fried enough mushrooms for 1 serving, and then saved the remaining ingredients for recipe #8, if you fry all the mushrooms you’ll have around 4 servings, depending on use

I was in hospital for 19weeks recently and made 4 really good friends who am now friends with in real life. I love your recipes so wholesome and look super tasty

[@viivi4196]

I really wanna try the fried mushrooms! but anyway, you wanted to hear friend meet-cute stories, so here's mine! I was spotting otters by a river and this girl came to ask if I saw them and we started talking more and exchanged contacts and now she's one of my best friends :)

[@Mina_Rome]

That is so sweet I can’t 🥺

[@TheDeadmanTT]

I wish I could find half as many cool vegan places in Darmstadt.

[@TerezaK23]

I recently became a bit obsessed with oyster mushrooms. Turned them into a goulash - super yum. But marinating them and then frying and putting into a wrap? That was even bigger win. Defo need to try them in panko! Thank you for inspiration, always love these videos. 😊 (Also have been meaning to try matcha for a while so I'm looking forward to the vid!)

[@lanafareh4808]

Your videos are so comforting Mina, thank you for working so hard to provide this lovely and beneficial content for us 🤍

[@iaraannechini6955]

Looooove these type of videos from you 😊 your voice is so soothing and nice to hear, and you're very creative with your meals ❤

[@Mina_Rome]

Aw thank you!

[@creepysmiley5350]

I normally don't write comments on yt, but because you asked so nicley and because it just happened to occur yesterday :3 I actually befriended a stranger at a bar (after taking part at a pride parade). A seemingly really conservative bar you'd guess by the looks of it. So I was alone there just enjoing my fermented yeast drink and wanted to let the awesome but quite overwelming day fade out. There where just another party of five and one other 'odd one out' lone guy. After a while I noticed he flicked a little rainbow themed pennon between his fingers, so after overthinking it way too much, I broke the ice and asked about it. And that was the beginning of a night long chat just about every topic we thought of... and it was a really nice expirience. And still, I'm pretty surprised by myself, just straight up beginning a conversation with a stranger like that. Haven't ever done something similar but I guess I will, if the tone is right, sometimes again.

[@lymb3914]

Your videos are always relaxing and inspiring to me, I really appreciate your insight ❤

[@lola.o.]

All of these recipes look so so good, I would love to try all of them. And also all the excursions to various places sound fun!

[@wsawab1122]

liebe deine fooddiarys! :)) und einfach mal so: du wirkst super sympathisch, würde mich sehr freuen, dich auf ner stand up show als sitznachbarin zu haben :D

[@Mina_Rome]

wie lieb danke 🥹🫶

[@karo7002]

I have been waiting for a new video so bad!!! I love your inspirations!

[@KlaraL-_-]

Another lovely video!! I swear I have to try the pasta recipe now, seems exactly like what I love. All of the smoothies looked amazing! And it was nice to see all of the events and a bit of Berlin 😉 I could honestly move there right now!

[@dessischopowa1022]

Liebe Mina, was für eine Überraschung, dass du in Berlin lebst. Ich habe dein Buch im Buchladen entdeckt und war sofort begeistert, es ist anders, mit besonderen Rezepten. Liebe Grüße aus Berlin-Spandau 💝

[@indigo_diary]

Man sieht einfach, wie viel Liebe du in dein Essen und deine Videos steckst😊❤

[@littlebirdblue4238]

Another wonderful video of relaxing, chill and inspiring content. Very curious bout all of the matcha recipes, as well as the potential outcomes for the research (film food series? :D) thank you for more lovely recipes, ideas, and for a nice way to chill on a cloudy day 🤍 have a marvellous rest of your week!

[@elsae6188]

My favourite videos are always your what i eat in a week ones💗

[@agatavalente2967]

Frickin adore ur content ! Thank you for existing Love u ♡

[@Mina_Rome]

aw love u too!!

[@LaurenAusEngland]

I love this 'what I eat in a week' format. I'm looking intensely into becoming vegan, which is why these videos are so helpful. I want to be confident that I can consistently make vegan meals. I'm someone who wasn't taught how to cook or allowed to use the kitchen throughout childhood and even early adulthood. So, it's definitely a big knowledge gap. I don't know what I still do not yet know. 😅 Finally, I can start to learn. ❤ Danke, Mina!

[@jesusistheanswer6003]

What i like about your content is the absence of your body plastered beside the food giving people the vibe "eat like this to look like me." A healthy lifestyle can be so toxic these days. Yours is so refreshing.

[@TheEiffelTowerGirl]

Planted products are just so good! 🤩

[@notyayo]

Yum! I hadn't thought of deep frying mushrooms, ima have to try it

[@x_ivaa]

highlight of my week (or life)

[@valeskabiener.4]

I made a really good friend being with my horses. She was at "our" barn and I gave her a carrot to feed the horses. Yeah and since then, we call us every two weeks or so. Just an amazing feeling. ❤😊

[@davidthescottishvegan]

Love 🥰 this what beautiful & gorgeous Mina ate during the week and plenty of yummy 😋 recipes. Love 💞Mina and have a happy week.

[@dinozzofangirl]

Liebe Matcha auch in kalt. Bin auf die Rezepte so gespannt! 😊

[@pf6250]

I hope you research is for an upcoming video on food in The Hungergames. That would be amazing!! ❤

[@juliebarosova]

I have the same espresso machine as you! super cozy video as always :))❤

[@lvisexx4478]

Watched your video while getting ready and then made the raw granola for breakfast, day coudn't start better❤

[@itsmeiish]

OMG MINA WITH MAYA AND MAX WHAAAAT (best crossover ever pls)

[@palgomflatlines]

I see that maybe you are doing a hunger games inspired recipes video 👀 I would absolutely love one of those ❤

[@KlaraL-_-]

The burnt bread Peeta threw to Katniss 💛 the starvation in District 12 and rations in 13 🧡 No honestly I would love to see that. Peeta´s baking and fancy Capitol food. And district inspired traditional foods. ❤

[@AliceWallberg]

Thank you so much for using my song! Amazing video as always

[@emilalatour4518]

I love those pancakes from your cookbook! ^^

[@carolinerushmore2975]

can you reply to this with the recipe? i really want to try them! thank youuu!!!

[@sarahhendrickson9795]

Sat next to someone on the plane 9 years ago… we are now very close and she is one of my closest friend!!

[@lucasvarley9764]

Really find your videos inspiring! Question... have you ever used Next Level Diet? I got a custom high-protein meal plan from them and it's really working!

[@leilas8416]

THE HUNGER GAMES FOR RESEARCH AHHHHHH😍😍😍

[@kawaiidoll4]

you should try making english breakfast muffins but vegan! super yummy! for the “egg” cut a circle out of medium firm tofu marinate in turmeric, black salt and oil n pan fry, rest toppings are optional too

[@JonesLeFae]

I just wanted to reach into the screen and grab one of those fried mushrooms! They look so good! YUM!

[@saoirsemaimcmahon10]

Thank you for sharing this idea.. of the ginger ale with ginger, cucumber & mint I'll defo make one of these I'm growing some fresh mint out in my backyard so this should be perfect....also I would be the same way if my week was full with meeting people I need my time alone to recharge. your probably an introvert like myself. :)

[@christinam.1930]

Thank you so much Mina! I had no clue where I would dive going full vegan and then your paged popped up and I have been following you for years and you have saved me from headaches so many times and have taught me so much thank you so much and I pray god blesses me enough to support you better one day...may God bless you always so much so that you flow blessings to your family, in Jesus name I pray...amen

[@michaela879]

Oyster mushrooms are soo amazing, I eat them basically every week, sometimes even daily :D And they are very versatile too- If you want to recreate something similar to fish strips, you can make them the same way you did these ones in panko, just add some shredded nori and fish seasoning into the batter. Also squeeze some lemon juice on top just before serving. It's super yummy

[@janemajewski4836]

LOVEEEE This Channel

[@hannahisabellelenck]

Actually quite intimidating to see your socializing scale😅 I find it really hard meeting new people as an adult.. your experience seems so nice! And how lucky to have u as a new friend🎉

[@riyadsouza8828]

[@poliscigirl]

My most random friend meeting was probably how in 2018 I was at a convention alone and a girl came in a little bit late and sat next to me and asked me some questions about what she had missed. I immediately thought she must be Dutch bc she reminded me of another friend who is Dutch, and that's why I remembered her. We talked a couple of times throughout the convention but not like in depth. The next year in 2019, I went to the same convention again and was in a super long queue for some autograph session when I realized... wait the girl in front of me is my seating neighbour from last year? As the queue moved soo slowly at some point I just decided to say hi and she couldn't remember me but still thought this was such a funny coincidence 😂 so as we were in there for like over another hour we talked a lot and this time actually became friends and exchanged contact info

[@Mina_Rome]

oh that is so serendipitous I love it!! thanks for sharing :)

[@idontknowwhattoputhere3343]

Hey, ich liebe deine Videos😊 Falls du da noch nie warst, kann ich dir echt Coffea in der Nähe vom Nöldnerplatz empfehlen! Ich arbeite in der Nähe und meine Kollegen und ich holen uns oft unser Mittagessen von dort… Ist ein Vietnamesisch-Veganes Caffee (die haben auch ein paar nicht vegane Sachen aber immer mindestens vegetarisch) und die Kuchen von denen sind echt krass. Falls du mal da bist und die den Russischen Zupfkuchen haben musst du den probieren, das ist der beste Zupfkuchen den ich jemals hatte (und ist vegan haha). Sonst kann ich auch das Banh Mi und die Paninis empfehlen.

[@selmario]

Omg I literally just ordered myself a set of 5 different matchas, so so excited for your next video( ￣▽￣)

Hi Mina! 🤗

hello carmen!!

[@ma_nel9283]

I love watching your what i eat in a week, so much food inspo that i desperately need, as for my friend meet cute, one day i was sitting in class all by my own watching an épisode of friends while waiting for the lesson to start, and then one girl sits next to me and she's like oh you watching friends , I HATE FRIENDS, we've been good friends since hehe Btw, for your movie/show inspired food, did you ever consider making a disney universe inspired vidéo ?

[@sujatadange8747]

Heyyy !!!!! Can u make dark chocolate at home without coconut oil or cocoa butter please

[@sukhmanpreetkaur8693]

Ok, the shape and texture of deep fried mushrooms looks like these could be used as a substitute for coconut shrimp with honey and hot sauce dipping sauce

[@hannahisabellelenck]

Always loove Ur music! Do u have open spotify playlists? And do u listen to taylor?

[@paulinederooij7180]

Hi Mina! What Espressomachine do you have? Would you recommend it ?

[@BlackButterfly14]

the shape of your fried mushrooms? had a coconut shrimp shape that I would eat all the time before I went vegan.

[@paraDice145]

I’m probably still too shy to make new acquaintances randomly like that 😅

Cute new-friend-meet: I was at a Fridays For Future demonstration on my own, wearing a bag with "vegan" written on it (shoutout to my artist friend who drew it). At one point this girl approaches me telling me she loves my bag (she is clearly also vegan), we start talking and we become friends really quickly ❤

I met my best friend on the bus back to college. She was asking someone else to come with her to the clothing shop but I thought she was talking to me. 😅 I said yeah because I had to make an exchange. The other person ended up flaking on her so she came to ask if I could still go. It’s been 7 years and still best friends.

oh nooo! you can sub the banana for apple sauce! You might not need any water then, but it should work!

I would find that annoying because I love 🥰bananas.

I’m currently recovering from getting my wisdom teeth removed and an impacted tooth surgery and this video is honestly just what I needed 🙏 I made the mistake of taking my pain meds on an empty stomach which made me feel extremely sick so I can do nothing but lay in bed right now to avoid throwing up. But watching your videos always bring me such warmth and comfort! I even fell asleep watching another one of your “what I eat in a week” videos last night haha! Thank you for bringing me joy, Mina 🫶 I’m excited to try out these recipes once I’m finally able to eat solid foods 😅 love you!
