Supplies
Seitan Nuggets
- 140g vital wheat gluten
- 20g nutritional yeast
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 175ml vegetable stock
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 litres vegetable oil
Coating
- 250g plain flour
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp onion powder
- 1 tbsp paprika
- 1 tbsp chilli powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- 4 tbsp egg replacer
- 12 tbsp water
- Vegetable oil
Steps
Seitan Nuggets
- In a bowl mix together the vital wheat gluten, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder and paprika. In a separate bowl or jug mix together the vegetable stock and soy sauce, then add it to the dry ingredients. Knead for about 5 minutes, until everything is well combined.
- Add the vegetable stock to a large, high sided pan and bring to a simmer. Break off pieces of the sietan and put them in the stock. These will double in size when cooking, so don’t make them too big! Bring to a simmer, then cook for 30 minutes, turning half way through. Remove with a slotted spoon then set aside.
- Heat the vegetable oil to 180c in a deep fat fryer.
Coating
- Mix together all of the coating ingredients in a shallow bowl. Mix together the egg replacer and water in another shallow bowl.
- Dip each nugget into the egg replacer, then into the flour before placing into the deep fat fryer and cooking for 3-4 minutes or until golden all over and crispy.
- Serve right away.
