Old fashioned, old school, retro. Obviously no lamb, lambs or sheep. 美味. The ginger, garlic and spices provide layers of flavour. As you like it, spicy or not. Who needs meat? No one
成份 提供4
2 large carrots, roughly diced
2 芹菜棒, roughly diced
一个大洋葱, roughly diced
900克 (2lbs) potatoes, scrubbed and quartered
120 克 (4 盎司) dried soya mince or TVP (I use the dark one with added caramel as it looks nicer)
a teaspoon of turmeric
a pinch of cumin
2 teaspoons of crushed dried chillies (可选)
一英寸的 (2 和一个 1/2 厘米) 一块生姜, 切碎
4 蒜瓣, 肉末
2 番茄酱的汤匙
3 teaspoons of vegetable stock powder
一汤匙的黑酱油
橄榄油
盐和胡椒
green vegetables to serve, (照片中的豌豆和菠菜)
方法
Sweat the onion, carrots and celery on a low heat in a large pan until the onions soften (关于 15 分钟). 用盐和胡椒调味
Add the garlic and ginger and to the vegetables along with the turmeric, cumin and dried chillies if using
Boil the potatoes in salted water for about 15-20 分钟, until soft
Preheat the grill on a medium high setting
Add the soya mince, tomato paste, 酱油, vegetable stock powder to the sweating vegetables, 旺火外套. Add a little water and turn up the heat and bring to the boil. Add water a little at a time when its absorbed (some vegetable proteins are more absorbent than others).
Turn down the heat and simmer for a further 15 minutes or so until the carrots become tender. Taste and adjust the seasoning as necessary
In the meantime when the potatoes drop of a knife, drain (retaining the water to cook any vegetable accompaniment) and mash with olive oil and salt and pepper
Transfer the soya mixture into a large ovenproof dish and spoon the mashed potatoes on top. Rake with a fork to make lines on top, spray or brush the top with oil and put under the grill for about 10 minutes to brown
(Serving suggestion:-In the meantime bring the potato water back to the boil, add your chosen vegetables and some more stock powder and when almost done reduce the heat and add a teaspoon of cornflour dissolved in a little cold water, serve the vegetables in their gravy (refrigerate or freeze any extra gravy for later) alongside the delicious pie)
