Question about a recipe in the Files-Jann

[Guest guest]

That isn't my recipe but I would use one loaf pan and bake it about 40 mins and

watch to see if the edges are crunchy and the center isn't too wet. I'm sure

that amount of baking will work.

Question about a recipe in the Files-Donna?

 

 

I found this in the files (Donna), but it doesn't say how long to

cook it? (see the end of the recipe).....

 

I had never heard of TVP before and had to go find out what it is -

how cool! Now I have to run out and find some so I can try it! I

want to try a few of the recipes and not tell hubby, although he's

been good about tofu added to stir fry in the past - as long as it's

tasty!

My TVP Loaf ~ vegan

 

This was my little cooking experiment last night.

All the TVP loaf recipes i could find had egg or cheese.

My goal was to make a delicious vegan version.

i thought it was a success, and enjoyed this loaf

with smashed potatoes, corn, and steamed broccoli.

Hearty comfort food.

i used the bit of mashed potatoes as a binder in

place of the egg i see in so many non-vegan recipes.

While i was doing this i thought a bit of instant mashed

potato flakes would be a quick & easy substitution for

that step. i hope you will try this, play around with it,

and let me know what you think.

 

TVP Loaf ~ vegan

 

1 cup TVP

2 cups vegetable broth

1 onion, finely minced

2 stalks celery, finely minced

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 Tbs. vegan margarine

1 small potato, cooked & mashed [or about 1/4 cup

mashed potatoes you have leftover]

1/2 cup bread crumbs

1/2 cup oatmeal

3 Tbs. Brags liquid aminos

2 Tbs. BBQ sauce

2 Tbs. tomato paste

1 tsp. gravy master [or Kitchen Bouquet]

Celtic sea salt to taste

Garlic oil, to grease loaf pans

 

 

Heat vegetable broth to boiling, add TVP and remove

from heat. Let sit until all moisture is absorbed.

Saute the onion, celery and garlic in the margarine until soft.

Add this to the reconstituted TVP. Stir in mashed potato,

bread crumbs, oatmeal, brags, BBQ sauce, tomato paste,

gravy master and salt. Mix completely. Divide mixture

evenly between two min-loaf pans that you have coated

the insides with garlic oil [or olive oil].

Bake at 350û for

Yield: 2 mini-loaf pans or 1 regular loaf

Thanks, wasn't sure as I've never made this type of loaf before.
