We are feeling the effects of climate change all around us from unseasonably dry and scorching weather to constant downpours that lead to flash floods. As individuals we can play a part in slowing down these effects by choosing to live more sustainably. Small daily changes in our lifestyle can have a cumulative effect in reducing the rate of climate change.
Sustainable living includes consciously choosing for the option that is better for the environment. This includes using electric vehicles, thrifting, and using pre-loved items, reducing waste, reusing, and recycling as well as switching to a flexitarian diet that is more plant-based.
Plant-based meats have come along way, and leading the way is yumeat™, the first shelf-stable ready-to-eat plant-based meat products that are GMO-free, antibiotic-free and hormone-free, preservative-free, halal-certified with 0mg of cholesterol per serving. yumeat™ products contain clean ingredients with plant protein from non-GMO beans, wheat, oats and mushrooms.

Nasi Kerabu
Jazz up your basic Nasi Kerabu (Blue Pea Flower Rice with raw local herbs and vegetables) by serving it with a side of pan-fried yumeat plant-based luncheon meat. Cube or cut the yumeat before pan-frying. Local, delicious, and nutritious.
Mee Goreng
First prep yumeat plant-based luncheon meat cut into batons, pan frying until slightly caramelised. Set aside. Fry up your noodles as you usually do but leave out the meat/chicken/fishcake as you will be yumeat-ing your protein. Sit back and watch as your family and friends dig into this deliciousness and compliment your cooking skills.
Plant-based Luncheon Curry
This curry pairs perfectly with roti jala, and can just as easily complement rice, rotis and even steamed bread. Here’s how: Dice up a can of yumeat plant-based luncheon in your choice of original or spicy. In a pan fry the diced luncheon until crispy, then set aside. In a pot, fry the onions until fragrant, add approximately 30g of curry powder and mix well and even more fragrant. Add in two and a half cups of water, bring the heat down to a simmer then add in two small potatoes that have been cut into wedges, and one cubed carrot. Then add 100ml of coconut milk, and simmer for until the potatoes and carrots are cooked. Salt to taste. Turn off heat, and pour in the diced luncheon cubes into the curry. Serve hot with roti jala.
