I went to the Oumph! launch party recently to celebrate them coming to the UK and being stocked in Tesco. I love all the food that was served that night and wanted to share the recipe for my favourite hoisin tacos so you can create your own at home.
They’re so tasty and you could be forgiven for thinking they were real meat tacos. The texture and flavour of Oumph is nothing like I’ve ever tasted and is a huge step for the plant-based world.
From Oumph’s very own top chef Fredrik Kampenberg (who’s considered to be one of Sweden’s top chefs for plant-based foods). These amazing plummy tacos are like crispy duck pancakes but 100x better.

Yes I love that! I?m gonna be sharing the tandoori one from the launch too. That was probably my second favourite. ??Me too! I tried them a few years ago so I?m happy that they?re more mainstream now and everyone else can try them. Love it! X
WOW! They look and sound amazing… definitely need to try OUMPH… I love duck and hoisin sauce what a perfect combo.

I couldn?t agree more! They?re fantastic! I hope you?ll give this tasty & super easy recipe a try. Oumph and this combo are life changing. So good! ??Thanks for reading Emma! ?xx
I wish we had omph in the US!
I know! It?s so good! It?s a European thing sadly.. but I have no doubt specially with the wicked kitchen connection they?re building on that it will come to the US. They?re looking at creating something together in the future so that could bridge the gap. So excited to hear more about that!
I need to try this brand so much, I’ve heard so much about them, they look so so good!
Love, Amie ?

You really do! They?re amazing and can be used and cooked in so many different ways. I?ve tried it fried, baked, deep fried & boiled so far. All great in their own way.
These look and sound amazing! I?ll have to see if I can find the product in the US!

I know right! They haven?t made it to the US yet.. just Europe atm. But I have no doubt with their huge success that time will take them there.

They were amazingggg. The tandoori ones were unreal as well. All the food from the launch was so good. I wanted to put loads in my bag and take it home ?? You?re welcome. Well this one is super easy and almost no cooking/prep so I hope you?ll give it a whirl.
Wow this looks super tasty, I still haven’t managed to try any of the Oumph products yet but really want to!
