Pea and Fava Protein Chunks: Plant-Based Alternative with High Protein Content

Pea and Fava Protein Chunks are dried pieces of organic concentrated pea and fava protein (80% pea, 19% fava), supplemented with salt. They are created as a quality vegan meat alternative, ideal for stir-fry, curry, falafels, or salads. These organic protein chunks contain up to 50 g of protein per 100 g, which is significantly above average for plant-based products.

They also contain fiber (approx. 14 g), minimal sugar (< 3 g) and low fat content (~4 g), with only about 0.8 g saturated. They are naturally gluten-free, soy-free, vegan, and made from certified organic ingredients. They contain no GMOs, additives, or substitutes. Thanks to their minimal composition, they offer a clean and nutritionally valuable component without unwanted additives. The combination of pea and fava protein provides almost a complete amino acid profile – they complement each other in trace amino acids like methionine and lysine. They are also easily digestible, hypoallergenic, and gentle on digestion.

 

How to prepare: Simply soak the mixture in water for about 30 minutes, drain, and briefly fry or add to cooking. You will get a soft inner texture and a taste reminiscent of meat or tofu, which excellently absorbs other ingredients in the dish.

 

Why use: These chunks add not only nutritional value (high protein and fiber content) to the meal but also structure and satiety. Suitable for vegans, athletes, or anyone looking for a sustainable meat substitute. Due to their low fat and sugar content, they also support dietary eating.

 

Who will appreciate: fans of fitness nutrition, lovers of plant-based alternatives, people with soy or gluten allergies, and those who want easy preparation with a nutritious result.

Thai Stir-Fry with Pea and Fava Protein Chunks and Yakso Curry Sauce (for 4 people)

Ingredients

• 1 jar of Thai Curry Sauce from Yakso,
• 1 cup of basmati rice,
• 200 g of pea and fava protein chunks,
• 1 small onion, finely chopped,
• 2 cloves of garlic, chopped,
• 1 red bell pepper, sliced into strips,
• 1 small zucchini or broccoli, cut into pieces,
• ½ cup of green beans or edamame,
• 200 ml of coconut milk (optional for a milder sauce),
• 2 tablespoons of coconut or peanut oil,
• fresh coriander and lime for serving (optional),
• a pinch of salt and pepper.

If you don't have pea and fava protein chunks on hand, you can conveniently use tofu in brine from the brand Yakso in this recipe.

It is ready for quick use, just slice and add to the pan. The result will be a soft texture and great taste – ideal for vegetarian and vegan cooking.

Instructions

• Soak the protein chunks in lukewarm water for about 30 minutes. Then drain and lightly dry.
• Cook the basmati rice according to the instructions. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a pan.
• Sauté the onion and garlic, then add the bell pepper, zucchini or broccoli, and beans. Stir-fry for 4–5 minutes to keep the vegetables slightly crunchy.
• Add the drained protein chunks and briefly fry to heat through and absorb the flavor of the vegetables.
• Pour in a jar of Yakso Thai curry sauce and add coconut milk to taste. Bring to a boil and reduce the temperature.
• Cook for about 5–7 minutes until the sauce thickens and the flavors blend.
• Season with salt, pepper, and optionally lime juice. Serve with rice, garnished with coriander.

Our Tips

• Pea and fava protein chunks absorb the sauce flavor well and retain a firm texture – ideal as a soy-free meat substitute.
• For a rice-free version, try serving with rice noodles or quinoa.
• Want a spicier version? Add a teaspoon of Yakso red curry paste at the beginning of cooking.
• For more textures, add a handful of fresh baby spinach just before serving.
• If you like spicier flavors, add a teaspoon of red curry paste at the beginning of cooking.
• Seroendeng adds an authentic finish – sprinkle the finished dish on the plate. This preserves the crunchiness and distinct coconut aroma, which would be lost during cooking.
