10 Vegan Recipes from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2024)

At The Protego Foundation, we believe there’s no better way to celebrate our magical cooperation in the fight for creature rights than by veganizing an array of magical meals from Goblet of Fire!

Whether you’re competing as a Triwizard Champion, rocking and waltzing at The Yule Ball, or taking direct action for the Society for the Promotion of Elfish Welfare, drink a gulp of Gillyweed and dive head first into these scrumptiously vegan recipes.

​1. Aunt Petunia’s Broiled Grapefruit

An unfortunate start to our wizarding hero’s fourth adventure involves the tantrums and tears of Dudley and Aunt Petunia battling over “the young killer whale” and his diet.

​Although The Protego Foundation does not approve of the fatphobic language used to describe Dudley (learn more on

​2. Scrambled Eggs, Bacon, and Orange Juice

As the Hogwarts students prepare for the arrival of their international counterparts from Beauxbatons and Durmstrang, Harry and Ron are left munching on scrambled eggs and bacon with Hermione lecturing on “A Highly Biased and Selective History of Hogwarts, Which Glosses Over the Nastier Aspects of the School” for the benefit of elf liberation.

In support of S.P.E.W, you can grab your nearest cauldron and veganize this British classic without the assistance of elves used in houses. This recipe involves conjuring your own rice-paper bacon!

Try this second recipe for tofu scramble that adds additional ingredients like mushrooms, tomatoes, and spinach.

For example, if you’re unsure about scrambled tofu, try Just Egg or Crack’d for an eggs-cellent replacement! And if you're a bit perplexed about making your own bacon, try easing yourself in with pre-prepared plant-based bacon from your local store.

​3. Steak, Mashed Potatoes, and Yorkshire Pudding with Pumpkin Juice

Harry and his friends are welcomed into The Great Hall to start their academic year with a hearty portion of steak, Yorkshire pudding, and mashed potatoes. Why don’t you welcome your own friends to your dinner table with this veganized version?

The mashed potatoes and Yorkshire puddings can be easily transfigured to be creature-free with these simple recipes. But what about the steak?

The Muggle duo from BOSH! has made magic with their vegan steak recipe.

If you’re strapped for time, you may be able to find a pre-made vegan equivalent in your local store. We have experience with using the UK-based “

​4. Hagrid’s Hearty Casserole

Originating from the French word for “sauce-pan,” the casserole is an extremely versatile dish with such variety that you will feel like you have been hit with a Confundus charm!

We are introduced to the beef casserole at Hagrid’s Hut, which is served to the trio as they ponder the Triwizard Tournament. This recipe includes a “cheezy” biscuit topping to add a contrasting texture – and also comes talon-free!

Switch out the beef for a plant-based chicken alternative if you want to feel like you’re feasting at The Yule Ball!

​6. Hungarian Horntail’s Goulash

The Christmas celebrations of international magical cooperation culminate with The Yule Ball at Hogwarts. At the feast, Harry devours a goulash before escorting Parvati Patil onto the dance floor for the Triwizard Champions’ dance.

Hailing from the land of the Hungarian Horntail, why not try this compassionate twist on a traditional goulash?

Filled to the brim with wholesome vegetables and a hearty handful of paprika, this straightforward recipe is quite easy to brew in your own cauldron.

This plant-based version is full of flavor and is a perfect way to warm your stomach on a cold, broody evening.

​7. The Twins’ Ton-Tongue Toffee

You can’t expect a Floo Powder fireplace mishap in the Dursley’s living room to be the only mischievous misunderstanding that happens during the trip to rescue Harry from the Dursleys, especially with the founders of Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes along for the ride!

Treat (or trick) your own friends with creature-free Ton-Tongue Toffees using this recipe. Toffees are traditionally made with dairy products, such as cow’s milk and butter, but there are simple switches to be found for those of us who can easily access a grocery store.

DISCLAIMER: This recipe will not cause any form of engorgement to the tongue of a friend or a foe, even if their name is Dudley Dursley!

​8. The Fat Lady’s Banana Fritters

In a continued effort to decipher the golden egg’s clue for the second task, Harry sneaks out of the Gryffindor common room to take a dip in the prefect’s bathroom (thanks to a tip from fellow Hogwarts Champion, Cedric Diggory!). Harry evades the gaze of The Fat Lady by exiting under the invisibility cloak as Ron enters the portrait hole.

The password to get past The Fat Lady? Banana fritters!

Try this recipe to conjure your own creation! Combine your ingredients (including flour, sugar, baking powder, and plant-based milk) to create a light and crispy batter for your cut-up banana. Serve with maple syrup and sesame seeds to unlock a particularly sweet treat!
