SOY STEAKS TWO WAYS




At this picture there is only one sort of the both steak-recipes to see. For the other one i was to slowly to take a photo, cause we were sooooo hungry!!! I don´t have the exact amount for the marinades, cause i forgot to write them down while preparing them, but it´s not all to difficult. Just cook the tvp soy steaks according to package instruction and let them drain well. I always use salted water or vegetable stock with a big branch rosemary, a half onion and a little bit of tomato paste for cooking the steaks. For the marinade, just mix all ingredients in a bowl. Be sure that the marinade contains enough oil (yes, nothing for a diet =))and especially salt!!! It should be a little bit too salty! The other important thing is to marinade them at least 4-5 hours, better more, so that the steaks can soak up the marinade!! You can use a tupperware box or a zip bag for marinading or anything else which is airtight. Do not despair if the steaks doesn´t take suuuuuper good on the first try. It needs some exercise to know how much salt or other ingredients you have to use. It doesn´t work well with me every time! =)

  • tomato paste
  • oil
  • salt
  • pepper

     - 300g TVP
     - 1 BIG CHOPPED ONION                                     
     - 1 CAN OF CORN
     - 1 CHILI PEPPER                                                    
     - 2 - 3 PEPPERS (RED;GREEN;YELLOW)

     - 3 CHOPPED CLOVE OF GARLIC

     - OIL


  1. COOK THE TVP FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES; THEN DRAIN AND SUEEZE IT OUT. 
  2. HEAT A LARGE FRYING PAN, ADD OIL AND SAUTE THE TVP, THE ONION AND THE GARLIC UNTIL IT´S LIGHTLY BROWN. 
  3. SEASON WELL WITH SALT, PEPPER, A LOT OF PAPRIKA AND OREGANO.
  4. AFTER THAT, ADD ABOUT 3 - 4 TBS OF TOMATO PASTE, STIR IT IN THE TVP AND SAUTE IT FOR ANOTHER 5 MINUTES.
  5. CUT THE PEPPERS INTO ROUGH PIECES AND GIVE IT TO THE PAN TOGETHER WITH THE KIDNEY BEANS AND THE CORN. MIX IT WELL.
  6. ADD THE CHOPPED TOMATOES AND BRING IT TO BOIL. IF IT´S TOO THICK YOU CAN ADD SOME WATER OR VEGETABLE STOCK TO IT.
  7. SEASON WITH SALT, PEPPER, PAPRIKA, CHILI PEPPER, OREGANO AND A LITTLE BIT OF SUGAR. THEN SIMMER IT FOR ABOUT 1 HOUR OR MORE.
  8. SO NOW IT´S TIME TO REST. THE BEST THING YOU CAN DO, IS TO COOK THE CHILI THE NIGHT BEFORE YOU WANNA EAT IT. THEN IT GET´S THE PERFECT SPICY CHILI CON CARNE TASTE.
  9. BEFORE YOU SERVE THE CHILI, ADD SOME CHOPPED BASIL OR CORIANDER LEAVES TO IT.
  10. SERVE IT WITH TACO CHIPS AND FRESH BAGUETTE.
