New 100% Vegan Caribbean takeaway, Jam Delish opens in Tooting
A brand-new plant-based Caribbean takeaway has launched in Tooting, south London, Jam delish have created an innovative 100% vegan menu, without compromising on their delicious Caribbean flavours. This is an absolute must try for all vegans and foodies in general, as the unique menu includes traditional dishes such as –
- Jerk ‘Chicken Wings’ on the ‘bone’ – A thin tofu wrap surrounds the Jerk marinaded seitan & soya based “Chicken” Wings, encasing a Sugar Cane skewer giving an authentic ‘chicken wing’ experience by eating them ‘off the bone’ whilst remaining 100% plant based.
- Curry ‘Goat’ – Jam Delish have created their own vegan version of “Goat Meat” which is then slow cooked with fresh seasonal vegetables, and infused with the traditional Caribbean flavours of garlic, ginger, scallions, thyme and scotch bonnets to give that authentic Curry “Goat” taste.
- Ackee and ‘Codfish’ – A staple Caribbean classic that is gently slow cooked with Ackee, their vegan version of “Codfish”, scallions, tomatoes, sweet bell peppers and scotch bonnets, and infused with hearty Caribbean spices.
- Caribbean Curry ‘Prawns’ – A ‘seafood’ dish with big bold flavours – large and juicy ‘Prawns’ are simmered with crunchy peppers in a creamy coconut sauce, infused with garlic, thyme, ginger, scotch bonnets and curry spice.
In addition to their traditional Caribbean dishes Jam Delish also offer vegan ‘Bacon’ Mac N’ Cheese, Chicken Salt Fries and their dessert menu is not to be missed either – featuring the popular vegan Biscoff and Oreo cheesecakes – but get your order in quick, as these sell out every week.
Jordan Johnson, Jam Delish owner commented:
“We’re so excited to be launching Jam Delish, My sister and I have grown up in Tooting but are from Caribbean heritage – we both made the decision to go vegan many years ago now but always missed the authentic Caribbean dishes we grew up on, so from here we started experimenting and have managed to create vegan versions of our favourite Caribbean meals over the years – and in all honesty, you wouldn’t know the difference!”
“The recipes have been perfected so much over the years that my vegan and meat-eater friends alike just can’t get enough, when they come to visit – a hot favourite is definitely the vegan jerk ‘chicken wings’ on the ‘bone’ and our version of curry ‘goat’. After enjoying the dishes so much ourselves and amongst friends we decided to share the experience for others seeking plant-based versions of their favourite Caribbean dishes, by launching Jam Delish – our mission is simple, we aim to show that there is no need to compromise on quality and taste when choosing to eat vegan.”
