Easy Vegan Fried Eggs
We just love how realistic these vegan fried eggs are – and how easy to make too! Delight friends and family and have fun in the process, without the cholesterol of course! The recipe will make around 8 vegan fried eggs. Use any leftover yoke for dipping soldiers 🙂

Ingredients
Yolks
- 200g/7 oz carrots, squash or pumpkin, peeled and sliced or cut into 2cm cubes
- 1 tbsp olive oil plus extra for frying
- 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
- 2 tbsp cornflour
- 1 tbsp unsweetened plant milk
- ½ tsp black salt (Kala Namak)
- ⅛ tsp regular salt
- ⅛ tsp turmeric
Whites
- 140ml/⅔ cup unsweetened plant milk
- 90g/⅔ cup rice flour
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tbsp water
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
Yolks
- Boil or steam the butternut squash, carrots or pumpkin until soft. Drain any excess water.
- Place the steamed vegetables along with all of the other ‘yolk’ ingredients into a high-speed blender and blend until very smooth. The consistency needs to be thick and gloopy. Set aside until needed.
Whites
- Using a medium-sized bowl, whisk all of the ingredients together until very smooth. Set aside until needed.
Cooking
- Using a large non-stick frying pan (with a lid), heat a little oil on medium then add 2 tablespoons of the egg white mixture. Fry for around 30 seconds.
- Place 1 level tablespoon of the yolk mixture neatly into the centre of the white. Place the lid on and then cook for 2-3 minutes but don’t flip half way through. Remove with a spatula and cook the rest of the ‘eggs’ using the same method (you might need to add a little more oil to the pan).
- After you’ve mastered the first one, you can try cooking multiple ‘eggs’ at the same time.
