Category: Healthy Recipes, Soups

 Ingredients List

  • 1 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 Tbsp. fresh ginger, peeled and minced
  • 4 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 8 oz. cubed seitan, chopped (or ground plant-based meat)
  • 2 cups water
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 lb. firm tofu, cubed small
  • 10 cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 2/3 cup rice vinegar
  • 3 Tbsp. soy sauce
  • 1 Tbsp. sesame oil
  • 1 tsp. vegan sugar
  • 1/2 tsp. ground black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp. ground fresh chili paste, to taste
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp. cornstarch
  • 2 handfuls of fresh spinach, torn (optional)

 Directions

1. In a large soup pot, heat the oil over medium-low. Add the garlic, ginger, green onions, and seitan. Saute for about 5 minutes, until fragrant and the seitan begins to brown.
2. (Do you like the repurpose of egg holder? It's a garlic holder now!) Add the water and the vegetable broth and bring to a simmer. Now, add the remaining ingredients, excluding the cornstarch and the spinach and stir well.
3. In a small bowl, add about 1/2 cup of the soup broth. Whisk in the cornstarch until clump-free. Stir the mixture back into the soup to thicken it.
4. Add the torn spinach and continue to simmer until the spinach has wilted and the soup has thickened slightly from the cornstarch.
5. Remove from heat. Let the soup rest for a few minutes before serving.
6. Serve hot.
