Ingredients

1 serving

  • textured soy protein75 g
  • sweet potato250 g
  • broccoli150 g
  • soy cooking cream50 ml
  • olive oil15 g
  • onion70 g
  • tomato paste25 g
  • garlic8 g
  • soy sauce15 ml
  • nutritional yeast8 g
  • flat-leaf parsley10 g

Method

  1. 1

    Tip the textured soy protein (75 g) into a bowl, cover with boiling vegetable stock and let it swell for 10 minutes, then squeeze it out in a sieve: rehydrated in plain water it would taste of nothing.

  2. 2

    Peel the sweet potato (250 g), cut it into large chunks and boil it for 18 minutes in salted water, until a blade goes through without resistance.

  3. 3

    Meanwhile, soften the chopped onion (70 g) for 5 minutes in a pan with 8 g of olive oil.

  4. 4

    Add the squeezed soy protein and let it colour for 6 minutes without stirring too often: that colouring is what gives it its stew flavour.

  5. 5

    Add the chopped garlic (8 g) and the tomato paste (25 g), cook dry for 1 minute, then add the soy sauce (15 ml) and a little water, and simmer for 5 minutes.

  6. 6

    Steam the broccoli florets (150 g) for 5 minutes; they should stay bright green and firm to the bite.

  7. 7

    Mash the sweet potato with a fork together with the soy cream (50 ml), 7 g of olive oil, salt and pepper.

  8. 8

    Plate the purée, the mince and the broccoli, and scatter with nutritional yeast (8 g) and chopped parsley (10 g).
