Vegan MoFo ~ Fusion Challenge!

I'm STILL plugging along with Vegan MoFo and the pre-determined prompts!  Today's is...the Fusion Challenge!  I'm not sure how much of a fusion dish this is but I *think* it would or could qualify!

COLESLAW!

First up is the more traditional vinegar based type of Coleslaw.  I took about a pound of red cabbage, carrots, and broccoli stalks that were pre-packaged and added the sauce which was made up of 1/3 C Tahini, 1/3 C Maple Syrup, 1/3 C Vegan Mayo, 1/3 C Apple Cider Vinegar, 1/3 C Ground Pumpkin Seeds

Here's where the FUSION part comes in...

I made a 2nd slaw.  Both of which I took to an omni pot luck.  This 2nd one is a Curried Coleslaw.  I used the same pre-packaged julienned/match-sticks and added a sauce made up of...1 C Golden Hunza Raisins, 1/4 C Pumpkin Seeds, 1/3 C Tahini, 1/4 C Lemon Juice, 2 T Maple Syrup, 1 T Curry Powder, 1/2 t Garlic Powder, 1 T Nutritional Yeast.

I enjoyed both.  The more I ate the more I liked the curry one.  It seems the more traditional type people at the potluck enjoyed the first one more - including my husband.


Not that these are FUSION but I also brought these Raw Vegan Lemon Balls to the Potluck.  The flavor was good but they were a little dry.  I suspect the Almond Flour was to blame.  I need to tweak this recipe before posting.

As you can see here there are 3 different looking "balls".  One I rolled in Shredded Coconut, the one is left as-is, and the one in the back I rolled in Coconut Sugar.

Question of the day: would you classify my Curried Coleslaw as a FUSION dish?
