An egg mayo or fart sandwich as we affectionately called it, was my favourite sandwich growing up and remained a ‘go to’ comfort food my whole life. Until I went vegan, then I thought my beloved egg sarnie was a thing of the past. When I found a vegan egg mayonnaise sandwich, using chickpeas I couldn’t wait to try it. It didn’t let me down. It looks and smells pretty similar to the original thanks to the kala namak and yes it tastes like it too!
I recommend ‘follow your heart’ vegenaise, its the best vegan mayo out there in my opinion and tastes just like the real thing. It comes with or without soy, organic and in low fat and grapeseed varieties. I’ve tried the organic, with and without soy versions and all are delicious.
I have converted Connie’s Rawsome Kitchen recipe for the thermomix below but for those of you without a thermie just use your food processor or blender. Connie’s original recipe is here. I left out the onions but what you add or leave out is entirely down to your personal taste.
