Ingredients
- 330g Essential Broccoli, broken into small florets
- 100ml dark soy sauce
- 3½ tbsp light brown soft sugar
- 1½ tsp toasted sesame oil (optional)
- 3 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 1½ tbsp cornflour
- 225g The Tofoo Co Original Seitan
- 4 clove/s garlic, finely grated
- 30g ginger, peeled and finely grated
- Steamed rice, to serve (optional)
- Toasted sesame seeds, to serve (optional)
Method
Put the kettle on to boil. Put the broccoli in a large heatproof bowl and pour over just-boiled water to cover. Let stand for 4 minutes, then drain and set aside. Meanwhile, in a small bowl mix the soy, sugar, sesame oil (if using), 1 tbsp water and plenty of ground black pepper; set aside.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan or wok over a high heat. While it’s heating, put the cornflour in a small bowl and season. Cut the seitan into bitesized pieces and toss in the seasoned cornflour. Fry for 6 minutes until golden, turning regularly until crisp. Lift out of the pan and set aside, leaving the oil in the pan.
Lower the heat to medium-high and stir fry the garlic and ginger for a minute until fragrant. Add the soy mixture and bubble, stirring, for 3-4 minutes or until thicker and syrupy. Add the broccoli and seitan and cook for 2 minutes, stirring to coat in the sauce. Serve immediately with steamed rice and scattered with toasted sesame seeds, if liked.
