Step 1 : Preparation
Let the TVP soak in water, the time that it become soft. You can also marinate it in soy sauce to give it a darker color, or you can also add smoked paprika - or whatever smoked spices - to add an extra meaty taste to it. Cut veggie in little cube, except the tomato : Blend it so it become a puree.
Step 2 : Cooking
Dans une casserole, Ajouter de l'huile. Lorsque l'huile est chaude, ajouter l'ail, les oignons, puis les carottes, le céleris, et les poivrons Vert et rouge. Lorsque les légumes sont cuits, ajouter la purée de tomate et laissez cuire un moment. Ajouter ensuite la purée de tomate afin the rendre la sauce un peu plus épaisse.
Ajouter ensuite toutes les épices, en gardant le sel pour la fin. Le sucre sert à réduire l'acidité des tomates.
In a saucepan, add oil. When the oil is hot, add the garlic, the onion, carrots, celery, green and red peppers. When the veggies are soft, add the tomato puree and the tomato paste, add all the spices (quantity depending of your taste) and keep the salt for the very end. The sugar is to reduce the acidity of the tomato. Let cook for a while the time it get a little bit thicker.
Take of the water form the TVP, and add it to the sauce. Let cook about 10 minutes, and add salt at the end, depending of your taste. You can also add some Nutritionnal yeast for an extra cheesy taste.
