Egg mayo sandwich filler (Vegan)

Makes 6-8 sandwiches

Too good not to share, this vegan egg mayo is legit; it tastes like the real deal, but it is cruelty free. 

I know it’s hard to believe, but you can make eggless egg mayo in 5 minutes. It’s actually quicker and easier to make than the traditional egg mayo because you don’t  have to wait for the eggs to boil. The secret for the eggy taste is the black salt, also know as Kala Namak. Yes, it’s as easy as that.
I found the black salt in an international food shop, but I am sure you can also find it online.
Top tips:
> the colour of the black salt is not actually black, it looks like regular white salt. 
> black salt is not that salty, so make sure to add regular salt to this dish, in addition to the black salt.
This is now my favourite way to use tofu, so give it a go and let me know what you think. Enjoy!

Ingredients
1 pack of silken tofu
1 pack firm tofu
1 generous teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 generous teaspoon whole grain mustard 
3-4 tablespoons vegan mayo
1/2 teaspoon black salt (Kala Namak)
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 tablespoon chopped chives (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste

Method
Crumble the firm tofu with your hands in a bowl. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix using a wooden spoon, until you get the texture of egg mayo. I like to add rocket and water cress to my sandwich. Even better on sourdough bread, because everything is better with sourdough bread. 
You don’t need to press the tofu for this recipe.

Tasty sandwich filler with mushrooms and dill.

It may not sound like much, but this sandwich filler is super easy to put together and tasty. Very simple, so don’t cut any corners, every ingredient is important.
The inspiration comes from Romania, where this is fairly common.
To make it even more special, try having it with some fresh sourdough bread. Like many others, I got into sourdough baking during lockdown number 2 and have been eating more sandwiches.

If you are looking for something different to put in your sandwich, give this a go. Enjoy!

Ingredients
2 cans sliced mushrooms in water
1 bunch of dill (chopped)
4-6 tablespoons vegan mayo
Salt and pepper to taste

Method
1. Drain the sliced mushrooms and add to a medium size bowl.
2. Mix in the chopped dill, mayo, salt and pepper. Taste and season again if needed.
3. Enjoy with fresh sourdough bread.

Thanks for the recipe go to my mum.
