Fans of Impossible meat will be happy to know that Tip Top has just come out with a plant-based Impossible Rendang Puff.Ā Known to be ā€œimpossiblyā€ similar to real meat in flavour, colour, and texture, the plant-based meat is cooked with sambal chilli, lemongrass, blue ginger, and a special blend of Nonya spices, all encased in Tip Topā€™s signature pastry.Ā 

Priced at $2.20 per piece, itā€™s a little more expensive than the original Nonya Beef Rendang Puff ($2) and much more than the already vegetarian Veggie Potato Curry Puff ($1.60).Ā 

Those who are curious about the Impossible Rendang Puff, can find them at all nine Tip Top locations for a limited period of time or until stocks last. The Impossible Rendang Puff will also be available on delivery platforms including Deliveroo, GrabFood and Foodpanda.Ā

Impossible Foods claims to have a vastly lower carbon footprint and uses less water and land than companies that sell real ground beef. But honestly, sticking to bean and soy-based meat alternatives are pretty much doing the same thing, or better.

When it comes to Impossible meat, itā€™s actually the similar texture and flavour to ground beef that have been reeling people in. When cooked, it packs an umami flavour and turns a pinkish colour that mimics medium-rare steak. The colouring and flavour in question come from ā€˜hemeā€™, a molecule naturally found in all organisms that also plays a part in making blood red.Ā 

That being said, the Impossible version of Tip Topā€™s rendang puff somehow also has more protein, less total fat, no cholesterol, and fewer calories than its meaty equivalent. But of course, that doesnā€™t count the fat and calories in the sauces and rendang spices used to fry up the puff in the first place.Ā 

Weā€™re told itā€™s nearly indistinguishable to the original beef rendang puff. If youā€™ve tried it yourself, let us know!Ā
