Ingredients You Need for Vegetable Taquitos [Vegan]
How to Prepare Vegetable Taquitos [Vegan]
- Peel and chop the potatoes and cook them in a pot of salted boiling water until fork-tender (about 12–15 minutes). Drain the water and mash the potatoes with a potato masher/ricer. Add a splash of plant-based milk for a creamier mash, then set aside.
- Heat oil in a pan/skillet over medium-high heat and add the chopped onion. Sauté for 3 minutes, stirring frequently, then add the grated carrot, minced garlic, and all the spices, and sauté for a further minute.
- Pour in the vegetable broth and add the peas (frozen), put the lid on, and cook for a few minutes until the carrot is softened. If using canned peas, drain and rinse them and add in the next step (not now). Turn off the heat.
- Add the mashed potatoes and vegan cheese (store-bought grated vegan cheese, cream cheese, or vegan cheese sauce). Use a fork or a potato masher to combine everything.
- Taste the veggie mixture and adjust the seasonings accordingly. If you want it spicier, add more red pepper flakes to taste.
- Preheat the oven to 410°F (210°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place 2–3 tablespoons of the filling onto each tortilla and roll them up tightly. Place every tortilla seam-side down on the baking sheet, next to each other.
- Brush with a little vegetable oil (to make them crispier) and sprinkle with taco seasoning.
- Bake in the oven for 17–20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. For even crispier tops, broil them for a few minutes.
- Serve with salsa, sour cream, vegan queso, or guacamole. Enjoy!
Notes
Optional: taco seasoning to sprinkle on top of taquitos
