Recipe By : Miriam Rudnick

Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00

Categories : TVP

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 cup TVP chunks

1 tablespoon ketchup, low sodium

1 1/4 cups hot water

1 cup sliced carrots

1 green pepper -- cut in 1 " squares

1 can pineapple chunks in juice -- reserving liquid

SIZE OF CAN - 20 ounces

1/4 cup sugar

1/4 cup cider vinegar

2 tablespoons cornstarch

1/4 cup Tamari soy sauce

 

In a medium bowl, combine TVP chunks, ketchup and hot water; let stand for 5

minutes. Cover tightly and microwave on medium-high power, about 10 minutes.

[OR - combine the ketchup and hot water together, then add 1/2 cup liquid to TVP

chunks in a covered pan and simmer until chunks are tender but not mushy, about

20 to 30 minutes.]

 

Bring 1 cup of water to a boil and add sliced carrots and peppers. Cover,

return to a boil, cook for about 2 minutes or until tender and crisp. Remove

from heat and drain, reserving liquid.

 

Return liquid from carrots and peppers to a pan, then add the juice from the can

of pineapple; bring to a boil, then add sugar and cider vinegar.

 

In a small bowl combine the cornstarch and tamari. Stir the cornstarch mixture

into the hot liquid. The sauce will thicken and come to a boil almost at once.

Add the cooked TVP, carrots, peppers, and pineapple to the sauce.

Danell,

 

Thanks for formatting and posting this recipe. Still working on the

export problem. Maybe I just got a defective Mastercook disk!

 

To clarify, I can't take credit for the actual recipe. It came from the

TVP Cookbook, by Dorothy R. Bates.
