HOW TO COOK OIL-FREE VEGAN » Water Saute, Broth Saute, Oven Roast - ALL OIL FREE!

[@saraswati1386]

Omg!!! Ty soooo much!!! ❤❤❤

[@EricsVeganVan]

Nice tips, thanks for sharing. One of the first things I noticed when I went vegan was how much easier my pots, pan, dishes and cutlery cleaned up.

[@wholefoodplantbasedcookingshow]

Right ? 👏👏👏👏👏❤️

[@ShoshiPlatypus]

Me too! Also, the whole kitchen stays cleaner, without the greasy deposits that result from oil in the air when you fry.

This is SO informative! It's hard to explain to others that we can cook without oil. This video explains it very well!

[@mrbr549]

Wish this was around when we went oil free a couple years ago. We learned a lot the hard way, but your video will help so many that wish to lower their fat/calorie intake.

[@jackiehofstede6479]

Usually I just heat the pan wirh the water already in it ! No need for splatters ! 💖💖

[@javahardumb4655]

Why. Why didnt I being sucha genius Think of that like a chüluu. You are a good chûluu.

[@poisedtobreak]

Very informative. I'm glad to know that it's totally possible to make roasted vegetables without using oil. My favorite combination of spices when seasoning are onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and black pepper. I appreciate you for making this excellent video! Well done.

[@margoriazantseva4471]

Epic video. I had this idea on my mind for a while but those stereotypes and rumors (that water-fried onions taste like boiled ones) were holding me back. I have been a vegan for only three months but it is alreay clear to me that IN THE LONG RUN only this type of cooking will allow you to stay healthy and good-looking for as long as possible.Thank you very much, i can't wait to try this technique.

Thank you so much Jill! This is one of the most common questions for new members of our local WFPB Groups. I am thrilled you've made this helpful video as an easy reference tool for us to refer people to!

[@brianrcVids]

In my experience, the less water you use the faster it will caramelize. I prefer to throw the veggies in there without water and keep it on low, only add bits of water when necessary.

[@HealthOrigins]

Yes, that's how I do it too - start with dry frying and add water only when it sticks 🙂 Great trick I learned from Forks Over Knives cooking course 👍

[@farrellvanessa]

Me too :)

[@ShoshiPlatypus]

Me too. It’s called deglazing. Works a treat. I find it sticks less if you use water rather than stock.

[@Bearinthewoods88]

That is because onions will not caramelize as long as there is water in the pan, all the water has to cook out of the pan before the exterior can reach a high enough temperature for the natural sugars to caramelize (320 degreesF). Water boils at 212(F) degrees, at which point it turns into steam (this can be altered sightly with an extreme change in elevation, or under extreme pressure which is basically how a pressure cooker works). The pan itself cannot achieve these temps until the water is all evaporated.

[@emeselatkoczy9011]

What heat setting are you using?

[@ellenskitchen2070]

Thank you for this! I have been trying to reduce my oil when cooking lately. Also love your shirt 🌸💕

[@lindalowry1513]

Really good information I didn't know onion had there own oil. Never tried sauteing without oil. Thanks a bunch.

[@ShoshiPlatypus]

I make my own veg broth on a regular basis. I have a bag in the freezer into which I put all my veggie bits like carrot tops, thick stalks, peelings and skins (I always wash all my veg and scrub all root veggies really well first). I also add the stalks of fresh herbs that are too woody to eat, and these add extra flavour. When the bag is full, it goes in the electric pressure cooker with some onion and garlic powders, herbs, a couple of bay leaves etc, and cooked for an hour. I often save cooking water left over after steaming veggies too, and use this as a base for the stock. The stock is then strained and cooled, put in a bottle and kept in the door of the fridge to use for all my cooking. The veggie bits resulting from making the stock go on the compost heap in the garden and get dug in. No waste! This home-made stock is really good!

[@wholefoodplantbasedcookingshow]

Fantastic 👍❤️

[@mareezy]

THIS is the video I needed. Thank you!

[@carolyn6689]

I always cook my stir fry veggies with water ...also helps to cook them faster if you put a cover on them,but you have to watch the water close as to not let it evaporate.

[@HealthOrigins]

If you close the lid, the vegetables will be more sautéed, rather than caramelised I found, so if I want it browning and caramelising, I do not close the lid and let the water evaporate. Using olive brine instead of water I find gives it another amazing layer of flavour too 🙂

[@libertygourmand6242]

Jill - I just started helping an old college friend revise her dairy-heavy vegetarian diet to healthier vegan (at her request), and one factor in her situation is that she is totally unfamiliar with oil-free cooking. This vid came out just as we're getting started - I fired it right off to her! Thank you! Now, for her to watch... :D

Hi thanks for your dedication to plant based cooking...I have been vegan before but never oil free. I'm pretty established in cooking things or baking things without oil but what I really need help with is making things like griddle cakes or waffles without oil. If you could link a video below or do a video on that I would be so grateful 💗✨🙌✨

Just curious, what is the vegan way to season stir fry vegetables? Love the soft jazzy background music in each of your videos. Thanks 👍😊

[@HealthOrigins]

You can add any spices or sauces you love - soy sauce, Chinese five spice, sweet chilli or hoisin sauce.

[@servicedogsgonewild7670]

Your voice is very calming I like you

[@HealthOrigins]

Great video Jill, I love it how you show 3 different things cooked without oil! I actually start caramelising my onions with heating my stainless steel pan hot enough where the water droplet is rolling around in it, then the onions do not stick, they brown for a couple of minutes releasing their own juices, and only then when they start sticking, I add a couple of tablespoons of water to deglaze the pan and keep on frying. Have you tried using green olive brine with your onions or stir fry vegetables instead of water? They take on this amazing slightly pickled taste - super yum! I love using the olive or gherkin brine for roasting my vegetables too - gives it some saltiness and a yummy slightly sour taste 😋

[@ShoshiPlatypus]

Health Origins Oooh, must try the olive brine trick! I never thought of that. It seems a shame to waste anything like that, doesn’t it. I also have roasted peppers in a jar with brine and that would probably work well, too. I’m also going to try adding a bit to my home-made veg broth. Don’t you find your onions stick on a stainless steel pan? I always use my non-stick sauté pan.

[@HealthOrigins]

@@ShoshiPlatypus yes, olive brine is the best added to stir fries and soups, stews! I don't use marinated pepper brine as I don't like the taste and consistency, but it's worth giving it a go. The onions don't stick on the stainless steel pan if you get it jot enough first and do the water droplet test like I describe above 😉

Interesting. I stopped using oil briefly years ago but I love the added fat that oils give. Will have to check out that info on why using oil is bad.

[@brianrcVids]

Oil has been called the white sugar of the fat kingdom. It's basically added calories (makes people fat) without any nutrition and it can contribute to atherosclerosis and heart disease (our number 1 killer).

[@linazarg]

@@brianrcVids Can you please give me some references? I've never heard that olive oil is bad for your health, as far as I know is very healthy.

[@brianrcVids]

@@linazarg Yes, see this video. Studies cited in the description. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gpPXqKqQhZmMnNU See Nutrition Facts. nutritionfacts.org/topics/olive-oil/ It's not just olive oil, it's all oils, which are hyperprocessed foods that remove all the fiber.

[@manon562]

@@brianrcVids I personally think that a little bit of oil adds a lot of flavor and doesn't kill you or make you sick. I've tried Jill's methods for a few months and the food just doesn't taste the same. Also, even though there are a few vegan doctors that promote the "no oil diet", there is also quite a bit of research that says good things about having some olive oil or coconut oil in your diet. So frankly....It gets difficult nowadays to believe anything, because there are too many different opinions. I just go with what resonates with me and fits my lifestyle.

[@saraswati1386]

If you've been diagnosed with any chronic diseases - you want to stop using oil immediately! There's a ton of info on KZbin about Whole Food, plant based diet, 0 oil. Check out Mr. Lalit Kapoor. You're entire life will change! 🎉 ❤

[@murielshore4843]

Would it be alright to use vegetable stock. I didn't think American's ate roast potatoes because we always see them dishing up mashed potatoes even with roasts. I am going to be caramelizing veggies without oil for the first time ever and I am a great granny.

[@wholefoodplantbasedcookingshow]

Absolutely, use vegetable stock 👍

[@ShoshiPlatypus]

It’s never too late to learn, is it! I am 67 and over the past year I’ve learnt a whole new way of cooking and eating, and I’ve gutted my pantry and freezer, and completely restocked them with whole-food plant-based ingredients. I’ve always loved cooking but this new culinary adventure has to be the most fun thing ever! I wish I’d known about it many years ago, though, because for the whole of my adult life I suffered with ulcerative colitis and then 5 years ago developed colon cancer and had my entire colon removed, leaving me with a permanent ileostomy. I have learnt that both these conditions are diet-related. Some people may say that going whole-food plant-based now, is like shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted, but I say better late than never! My weight has continued to fall and I eat as much as I want. I am feeling good, and I’ve even noticed recently that my hair has got thicker! Also, my hubby (aged 71) has amazed the doctor recently with his weight loss (he and his entire family have a history of obesity, type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease, all caused by bad diet rich in animal fat and protein) and the fact that his BP and cholesterol have plummeted to normal and he’s permanently off his statins. The doc said it was like looking at the results of a totally different patient. This way of eating WORKS!!!!! PS It’s also delicious, and becomes more so as your taste buds adjust to how they should be when they are not being assaulted with all the damaging animal stuff.

[@wholefoodplantbasedcookingshow]

Yes, because it is a whole food. Of course you should always be mindful of the quantity.

YES!! If you're on a zero oil diet, you'll want to get healthy oils from coconut (like the real coconut) walnuts, pecans, flax seed (grind it up), avocados, etc. 🎉❤

I had decided to go oil free and for a while I wasn't using any oil. I pretty much used the methods you showed, but I'll be honest: the taste is just not the same at all. It's really bland and not appetizing. Sorry Jill. I just wasn't enjoying my food. So I went back to using oil. Mind you, I don't use very much, but that little that I use does make a big difference in the taste, and frankly I don't think that I'll fare physically worst because of it. I never add oil in my salads or my salad dressings because I don't care for the taste of raw oil, but for frying, it's a different story.

Because the onions need to cook for a long time and the broth would burn before the onions are cooked.
