This vegan recipe, along with its regular counterpart, is from the 2001 As You Like It Cookbook Ingredients:
2 tablespoons sesame oil |
1 1/2 cups onions, finely diced |
1 cup carrot, shredded |
2 teaspoons fresh garlic, minced |
1 teaspoon dried savory |
1 teaspoon dried whole thyme |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 cup bulgar wheat |
3/4 cup textured vegetable protein, dry |
1 1/2 cups hot water |
2 teaspoons vegetarian beef bouillon powder |
2 tablespoons flax seed meal |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F, then oil an 8 x4 loaf pan & set it aside.
2. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat, then add onions, carrots, garlic, savory, thyme & salt.
3. Saute for about 3 minutes, or until the vegetables begin to soften, then add the bulghur & cook another 3 minutes, before removing from the heat & setting aside.
4. In a large mixing bowl, Textured Vegetable Protein, hot water & vegetarian beef bouillon & mix thoroughly to blend.
5. Add flax meal & mix thoroughly, then add the sauteed vegetable mixture, mixing by hand until well combined.
6. Transfer the mixture to the prepared loaf pan & bake in the oven 30 to 40 minutes or until the top is lightly browned & the loaf is firm to the touch. Remove the pan from the oven & run a dull knife along the sides of the pan, then invert it onto a serving plate to release the loaf. Let sit about 5 minutes before slicing & serving.
