QUORN TAKEAWAY RANGE
For this recipe, I have partnered with Quorn to showcase their brand new fakeaway food range, which is lip-smackingly delicious. Texture and Taste are so chicken-like, that you won't believe it's not real chicken!
Takeaway food is often fried and considered more like a treat. However, we are extremely lucky that this Quorn fakeaway range has healthier meatless options. Bake or Air fry the Buffalo Wings in just 16-18 minutes. Why order a takeaway, when you can cook delicious meat-free meals in a jiffy at home?
Whether you are vegan, veggie, or flexi, these Quorn Buffalo Wings smothered in Gochujang sauce is super easy to make, and will easily impress everyone. Make it a meal combo with rice or noodles and enjoy any night of the week.
Easy-to-make epic restaurant-quality fakeaway at the convenience of your kitchen!
I found Quorn Buffalo Wings at my local Sainsbury's, but they are also easily available at Tesco, ASDA, Morrisons, Waitrose, and Ocado Online.
About this Easy Korean Gochujang Buffalo Wings
We often make Buffalo Cauliflower Wings at home, sometimes with a buffalo sauce, orange sauce or with a Korean inspired gochujang.
So when Quorn asked me to create my own spin with their tasty Takeaway range, I wanted to create this delicious Vegan fakeaway recipe. These delicious Buffalo Wings are easy-to-prepare and perfect on busy weeknights.
Instead of ordering a takeaway, I opted to make Baked Vegan Buffalo Wings, tossed in a homemade gochujang sauce. Then garnished with white sesame seeds, spring onions and red pepper flakes, just before serving.
