Vegan Fish and Chips Made with Banana Blossoms

Lunch is served with this vegan fish and chips dish.

In lieu of fish, this plant-based fish and chips recipe features marinated banana blossoms. Fishing is one of the biggest threats to ocean wildlife populations. And it can become problematic when fish are caught faster than stocks can be replenished. When too many fish are taken out of the ocean, an imbalance in the food web is created. This can result in a loss of other marine life, such as turtles and corals.

If you’re looking for a more sustainable option to fish, try this fish-free recipe. The battered banana blossoms have a delicious, flaky texture—similar to haddock fish.

This vegan fish and chips recipe also features a tangy tartar sauce. You can easily whip this up using only a handful of ingredients, including vegan mayonnaise, lemon juice, and pickle relish.
