This is really good, but the look is a bit strange. When I made it the balls looked like uncooked meatballs, which is unappetizing. Next time i will lighten up on the t.paste. The flavor and texture is great!

As an ethical vegan, I'm always on the lookout for tasty, cruelty-free meals. I work in the medical field, but my heart lies with anything and everything relating to animal welfare. I share my home with two each furry (cats) and feathered friends. Something I'd like to encourage all chefs is, don't be afraid to experiment! I'm not always really specific about measurements, and that's because I go by feel, so if you want to add a little more or a little less -by all means!
