Ingredients
- Dry ingredients
225 gr vital wheat gluten
1 tbsp shiitake powder
2 tbsp nutritional yeast
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp smoked paprika
1/4 tsp cummin
Black pepper to taste
- Wet Ingredients
180 gr cooked lentils
tbsp tomato paste
1 tbsp bbq sauce
2 tbsp soy sauce
1/2 tsp liquid smoke
Juice from half a lemon
1/2 cup + 2 tbsp water
- For the marinade
1/3 cup water
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp soy sauce
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tbsp bbq seasoning
1/2 tsp liquid smoke
1 tbsp maple syrup
Directions
- In a bowl combine all dry ingedients and stir. In a blender add all the wet ingredients and blend until smooth. Pour the wet ingredients in the dry bowl and knead for 5 minutes until you have a firm dough. Let rest for 10 minutes.
- Knead for another 3 minutes and divide in 6 or 8 equal pieces. Spread each piece by pressing it on a surface and stretching it until 1 cm (or less) thick. Lighty oil both sides and steam the seitan steaks for 15 minutes. Turn around half way through. Steam in batches. Don’t place one steak over the other as they will get weird shapes! Take notice that the fillets will double in size in the steamer but will get back to (almost) original shape once cooled. Let steakes cool completely in the fridge (best overnight) to firm up.
- Add al the ingredients of the arinade in a bowl and mix well. Let steaks marinade for at least 1 hour. Pan fry, bake or grill until brown.
Notes
- Instead of shiitake mushrroms youcan use any other dried mushroom powder yo want.
- Make sure to knead the dough at least for 8 minutes. In order to get a good texture yu have to knead it hard and for a specific amount of time.
