Always vegetarian, often vegan

Vegan steak with stroganoff sauce

This home made vegan steak is easy to make, delicious to eat. We love to eat it with stroganoff sauce. My husband has been making this sauce for us since I've known him so it's a keeper. And when I finally got to see the recipe, it turned out to be exactly what we love. Tasty, simple and ready very quickly. Although this sauce is tastier if it is made the day before or the morning before, so that the flavors can absorb. We eat it with our vegan steak, of which we have added the recipe here for convenience.

Instructies

Seitan steak

  • Puree the beetroot and lentils in a food processor.
  • Add all other ingredients and knead well. Within a few minutes a fairly juicy dough is formed. Let this dough rest for an hour in the fridge.
  • Now cut the dough into 4 pieces and press flat in the shape of a steak.
  • Steam or boil the seitan for 30 minutes. We used the steamer for this, but cooking also works fine. Do not let the water boil too hard, but rather let it simmer slowly.
  • After the seitan is cooked, you can choose whether to prepare all steaks immediately or to freeze part of it.
  • You can now marinate the steaks you are going to prepare. We used 3 tablespoons of ketjap asin, pepper and salt.
  • Now fry the marinated piece in hot butter or olive oil. Turn it over after a few minutes. The seitan is already cooked so it's all about coloring and heating the steak.
  • We ate these with fries and mayonnaise, delicious!

Stroganoff sauce

  • Fruit the finely chopped onions in a dash of olive oil.
  • Add all other ingrediënts except for the cream and cook until fully warm.
  • Let the sauce cool off. If possible let the flavours develop for a couple of hours.
  • Warm the sauce, add the cream and serve.
  • Helen who bakes loves this dish with potatoes while Helen who cooks prefers rice. It tastes delicious anyway.
