Make Vegan Egg At Home // So Easy & Cheap! (Just Egg Substitute)
Just Egg is a cool egg substitute, but for what it is, it's kind of expensive and definitely has some extra ingredients in there that don't need to be. In this video I show you how to easily make it at home yourself using just a few ingredients for a fraction of the price!
You can use this to make vegan fried egg, omelettes, scrambled eggs and even french toast!

Recipe:
1 cup split yellow mung beans
1 1/3 cups of water
1 tsp dehydrated onion flakes
*or 1/2 – 3/4 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp of salt
1/2 tsp of turmeric
Add after cooking (sprinkle on top of your food):
1/4 tsp kala Namak (Black Salt)
1/4 tsp black pepper
Method:
1. Rinse the mung beans well and then soak for at least 4 hours or overnight.
2. Discard the water and add the mung beans to a blender.
3. Add 1 1/3 cups of water, onion flakes, salt, and turmeric and blend until smooth.
4. Now it is ready to use however you would like! Scrambled eggs, fried egg, or omelette.
5. Sprinkle Kala Namak (Black Salt) on top of what you make for an eggy flavour, since the cooking process will cook out most of the eggy flavour. Add black pepper as well. Enjoy!

I’m not a vegan but I’m on a whole food plant-based diet and I really appreciate all your content.
🤔
Hope you are on your way to go vegan. Best to you.
Awesome, I hope you enjoy this recipe!
The animals dont care if you call yourself plant based or vegan 🙂
@@G-rig6969 you can be plant based and still eat animal products.
Just egg, once opened, doesn’t last very long in the fridge—I’ve had it go moldy, swampy tasting with a half bottle/carton left!! Homemade sounds great! Thanks, Derek! ☺️♥️
I try to use it up quickly because its so $$$ but I am surprised by that since it has preservatives in it. At least with homemade you can control how much you make at a time so no wasting! If you try it, please enjoy!
I pour it into ice cube trays and freeze it. It still cooks fine after thawing.
Such a great video!!
I love it when you figure out how to make something like this to help people eat healthier and save money…
Thank you!! 😊
Looks amazing! I bet it would be great in a breakfast burrito with some seitan sausage.
Oh it would be amazing in that
💚It’s always good to see as many vegetarian options as possible anywhere you go.
I find that you can add tofu scramble (or just tofu) to just egg to improve the texture. Makes it less flat and crepe-like.
This is exactly the recipe I was looking for 🤩 another banger, man!
Awesome! Enjoy 😀
This is awesome because I have been using Just egg to make a recipe I used to make with spaghetti noodles that were cooked I would add just egg to stick to the drained cooked pasta while cooking longer and adding garlic powder and nooch and oregano and vegan parmesan and then chopped up Italian gardein sausages. It was easy to have with a salad. Super quick meal.I also make quiche with just egg so I might try with the mung bean recipe too. Thanks for this .
I am thinking that this plus some crumbled, not too firm, tofu would produce something very similar to an egg-based quiche, softer with a mix of textures. Going to give it a try.
Looks amazing!!!! I can’t wait to try this! I’ve used silken tofu for an omelette before but now I’m excited for this!!❤
I’m always thinking on new way’s on vegan! I can’t wait to try this! I love how you explained everything so easily for us! Thank you Derek! It looks like your cat was comfortable! ! I look forward to your post.! You’re recipe to help us
A shortcut I found was to use Mung Bean Flour (Moong Dal Flour), which can also be found in an Indian grocery (I also found in an Asian/Chinese market, but it had a greenish tint from the mung bean shells-still tasted fine). Nice thing is I prepared pouches of premixed dry ingredients that I just need to mix right before making breakfast–no need to soak the night before!
Do you have a recipe?
Great idea! I would love the recipe:)
Nice!
Yes, recipe please! This sounds awesome.
Recipe please.
Yes! I’m so excited for this. I stopped buying Just Egg because it’s so expensive, and it doesn’t keep once it’s opened. Thanks for figuring out how to make a much more affordable alternative at home!
Enjoy!
Kala Namak! Rainbow Plant Life turned me on to it for her tofu scramble. It’s amazing for egg replacements!!
I was SO happy when the liquid Just Egg came to my grocery stores, Now I’m even more excited to try this and save a bunch of money (especially with all of the greedflation) Thanks Derek!
Always great content, thank you!
Additional tips:
If this is a bit too dry for your taste, you can add some fat by blending a T of cashews with it.
Also, this stuff is better after freezing. I don’t know why.
I usually bake (or microwave!) and freeze in slabs. You can toast them after defrosting. You can toss into soups, salads, stir fries. They seem moister after freezing. 💚🌱
Cool idea! I’ll have to try that too.
Probably bc moisture gets into it
@@ridefree9160 Lol duh me 😄
I make this a lot , today was one of them. I added a homemade tapenade made with kal olives, sun dried tomato, sautéed onions and garlic. A delish omelette .. I made the whole mix and put it in the fridge for snacking on this time. I’m thinking I’ll slice and air fry to make them crispy for dipping.. 🤗 Happy Sunday!
I’m sooo happy about this video – thank you! I have a Just Egg frozen patty or the bottled stuff almost every day and it costs too much and has unwanted ingredients. Thank you so much for creating this recipe – I can’t wait to try it! 🙂
This is awesome! I will definitely try it. It’s so great of you to experiment and try to figure out how to make it, and then share it with us. Especially since Just Egg doesn’t seem to be available here yet (Sweden). Thank you 😊👍
Yo man! Vegan chef here, I run a restaurant in the Midwest of US. I created a MUNG egg for our restaurant about a year ago and it has been one of the most popular items since. Ours is a bit more complex than yours but i appreciate you putting the knowledge out. If you make it right you can use it to egg batter and then bread items for baking to be crispy and delicious. Here at the restaurant i used our mung egg to batter eggplant and bread them with Italian bread crumbs and bake, flip and bake again. They are incredible eggplant parm. People really love that and the omelette we offer now. We also have a VERY hearty breakfast wrap that i call the “high protein breakfast wrap” thats delicious. A breakfast suitable for a calisthenics athlete like you or I my friend. 😊 I hope you read this.
Look at you! 😎 very nice
If you are willing to share some more intermediate/advanced tips, I’m up for the challenge!
Total Win! Thank YOU so much for making this an Oil Free Vegan Egg Recipe! My doctor and I are No Oil Plant-Based Vegans and she will love this, I can’t wait to share it with her! Thank you!!!!!
