Please tell us more about yourself
Hi everyone! My name is Mina and I am a vegan chef from Barcelona who is passionate about animal well-being and sustainable food choices. Growing up, I had a traumatic experience seeing first-hand my grandma raise animals for consumption. This led me to reduce my animal product consumption until seven years ago when I went vegan and decided to make it my mission to create and veganize dishes from around the world.
My dishes are inspired by flavors from around the world, particularly Mediterranean cuisine. I am committed to promoting a compassionate and sustainable food system and welcome followers to join me in this mission.
It’s been almost 7 years since I decided to go vegan… I remember the moment when my mind just clicked… suddenly, I could not see any animal products without having their fearful eyes in my mind, sad and waiting for their horrible fate. I could feel like I was right there with them, in a slaughterhouse.
Since then, I never looked back and I just wished I made the connection way before.
One of my passions is learning how to cook food from every place around the 
.

Taiwanese Be’ef Rolls
Taiwanese Be'ef Rolls
Here we have – one of the best street foods and my husband’s favorite 🤩: Taiwanese Be’ef Rolls 🌯 so good! 😍 I used @nextmeats_usa #notsponsored and so happy to say that was an amazing choice! 😋😋 I am definitely going to keep using their product for all my be’efy recipes 💕.
Taiwanese Be’ef Rolls – 🌯 made w/ @nextmeats_usa . You can make a big batch of scallion pancakes and freeze it. Just separate each other with parchment paper 💁🏻♀️.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
- ¾ cups hot water, plus extra if needed
- 3 tablespoons oil
- Bunch of sliced green onions
- 1 lb vegan beef
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- 1 tbsp dark soy sauce
- 2 onions halved
- 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 2 tablespoons shaoxing wine
- 2 tsp sugar
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 inch piece of ginger sliced
- 4 star anise
- ¼ teaspoon five spice powder
- 2 cups thinly sliced cilantro
- 2 cups thinly sliced lettuce
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, and salt. Gradually add the warm water and vegetable oil, stirring until a dough forms. Knead the dough for about 8 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic. Cover the dough and let it rise for about 30 minutes.
- While the dough is rising, cook the vegan meat in a pan by combining the soy sauce, onions,hoisin sauce, shaoxing wine, sugar, garlic, ginger, and five spice powder for about 10 min.
- Divide the dough into 2 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a thin circle about 12 inch in diameter.
- Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Cook the dough circles for about 1-2 minutes per side, or until puffed and lightly browned.
- To assemble the be’ef rolls, place a cooked dough circle on a plate. Add a small amount of housing sauce, cooked beef, green onions, cilantro, and lettuce on one side of the dough.
- Roll the dough around the filling, tucking in the sides as you roll to make a neat package.
- Repeat the process with the remaining dough and filling.
- Serve the be’ef rolls warm and enjoy them with additional hoisin sauce or chili paste if desired.
