Seitan Lomo Saltado

Serves 4

2 tbsp. olive oil

1 lb. (450g) seitan, cut in strips

1 medium red onion, sliced

2 chili peppers, seeded & sliced

2 Roma tomatoes, cored & sliced salt

3 cloves garlic, minced salt

freshly ground black pepper

4 tbsp. tamari

3 tbsp. apple cider vinegar

3.5 oz. (100g) cooked French fries

2 tbsp. cilantro, chopped

What you need to do

Heat the olive oil in a skillet over a high heat, add the seitan and sear, stirring occasionally, for 4-5 minutes until it begins to caramelize.

Add the red onion and chili peppers and cook, tossing constantly, for 3 minutes until the onions have just started to soften. Add the tomatoes, stir through and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes. Now add the garlic, a good pinch of salt, and a couple cracks of black pepper and let cook for a further minute.

Reduce the heat to medium and add the tamari and apple cider vinegar, stirring until the seitan and vegetables are fully coated in the sauce. Simmer for 1-1½ minutes to allow the sauce to thicken slightly.

Remove the skillet from heat and add the French fries, tossing to completely coat in the sauce. Garnish with cilantro and serve immediately.
