Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

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

1 tablespoon light sesame or other vegetable oil

1 large onion -- chopped

6 cloves garlic

minced or sliced thin

1 large apple -- peeled

cored and chopped coarse

Freshly ground black pepper -- to taste

6 tablespoons seitan marinade

OR vegetable stock

6 ounces traditionally seasoned seitan

cut into 1/2-inch dice

3 tablespoons dried currants

1 1/2 cups drained sauerkraut -- juice reserved

6 tablespoons sauerkraut juice

1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh dill

OR 3/4 teaspoon dried dill

 

Serve this subtly sweet and sour combination over rice, kasha, or

noodles. Stir-fried mustard greens and leeks are an agreeable accompaniment.

 

Set a wok over medium-high heat and add the oil, swirling it to coat the

pan. Add the onion and stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes, until

translucent. Stir in the garlic and apple and continue stir-frying for 2

to 3 minutes. Season with pepper and stir-fry briefly.

 

Add the marinade and heat it to a simmer. Stir in the seitan, currants,

sauerkraut, and sauerkraut juice, and simmer over low heat, stirring

occasionally, for about 5 minutes or until the flavors are melded and the

liquid has reduced somewhat. Add the dill during the final minute or two

of cooking. Serve hot.
