“This might be a special request - could your kitchen make me some crispy potato cakes? I'm thinking shredded potatoes mixed with flour, baking powder, salt and seasonings, then fried into patties until golden. Make it a main dish portion. Can you confirm you'd fry them in vegetable oil and that the flour and baking powder don't contain any dairy? Also, would they use the same fryer as any meat items?”
Ingredients:potatoes · flour · vegetable oil · spices and seasonings · salt · baking powder
Confirmation questions, not custom builds. Most kitchens premake breads + sauces, so ask whether the standard recipe is dairy-free rather than for a from-scratch swap.
You picked a non-vegan restaurant. The order above gets you as close to vegan as the kitchen can ship tonight. Shared fryers, premade dough, may-contain disclaimers come with the territory. If you need certified vegan only, find a vegan restaurant.
