Thai Basil OmniMeat

Wow! This Thai basil omnimeat dish was delicious! The omnimeat was cooked in a pad krapow style with holy basil and chilli. Long beans were added in this. Served with white rice and a side salad. This January, every stall at Frontier is offering at least 1 vegan dish. I hope this initiative continues beyond veganuary! #nuseats

Good portion size, and good amount of chilli for me! I liked having long beans mixed in with the meat. Bit oily though

I’m so excited to see a lot of omni delights in NUS this month! In particular, this dish was packed with flavours! The basil omni-meat was cooked with dried curry leaves, long beans and chilli, enabling the dish to be so fragrant and addictive! *warning: the chilli was more than just a tad spicy but it didn’t overpower the sweetness from the omni-meat* The texture of the omni-meat was not a 100% as it failed to mimic the roughness and unevenness of the actual meat, which I preferred. Despite this, I’m certain some people would like the smoothness of the minced omni-meat. Nevertheless, the omni-meat was juicy, not dry in any way, and savoury on the right note! :’) One minor qualm, I wish the vege/salad would have a dash of lemon juice on it so it’ll be more appetising for people who’re not huge fans of raw vege.

Did you know that every stall at NUS Science Canteen is serving a delicious plant-based dish this january?! 😍 This Thai Basil "Pork" (from the Thai Food Stall) was an incredible rendition of the classic dish. Juicy, savoury, spicy and all the right flavours?! 😭😭😭 Wow, it's almost too good to be true how the vegan scene in NUS has transformed in my 4 years here. Thank you to NUS VEGE, NUS SAVE, Centre for a Responsible Future and #GreenMonday for making #veganuaryinnus possible!!!! ❤️
