Vegan Cesnecka

Mix the crushed biscuits with the melted butter until fully combined.

Recipe Summary Vegan Cesnecka

Cesnecka (aka Czech garlic soup) is a common starter in the Czech Republic. Czech cuisine is not exactly the most vegan-friendly, and most recipes call for loads of lard, butter, and chicken/beef broth. So here's my veganized version that is much more heart-healthy and Czech-approved! Garnish with vegan cheese, if you like.

Ingredients | Vegan Banoffee Pie Uk

2 tablespoons vegan margarine (such as Earth Balance®)

1 small onion, chopped

6 cloves garlic, crushed, or more to taste

1 tablespoon caraway seeds

1 teaspoon salt, or to taste

½ teaspoon ground black pepper

5 cups water

1 tablespoon vegetarian chicken-flavored bouillon granules

3 potatoes, diced

2 slices bread, cubed, or more as needed

1 tablespoon vegan margarine (such as Earth Balance®)

salt and ground black pepper to taste

1 pinch oregano, or to taste

1 pinch onion powder, or to taste

1 pinch garlic powder, or to taste

Directions

Heat margarine in a medium-sized pot over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook until onion is soft and translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add caraway seeds, salt, and pepper and cook for another minute. Add water and mix in bouillon. Bring soup to a boil, about 5 minutes. Add potatoes, adjusting water as needed to cover potatoes by a few inches. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook until potatoes are soft, but not mushy, 15 to 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, toss cubed bread in a pan with margarine over medium heat. Sprinkle salt, pepper, oregano, onion powder, and garlic powder on top. Cook, shaking the pan occasionally to cook evenly, until crouton are crisped, about 10 minutes.

You can also use regular veggie bouillon or veggie stock, but the chicken flavor is more savory.

Feel free to use store-bought croutons in place of homemade. When making homemade, you can use olive oil in place of vegan butter.
