Seitan 'Hot Wings'

Ingredients

  • 1 cup vital wheat gluten flour
  • ¼ cup gram (chickpea) flour
  • 1 cup of water
  • Add any seasoning you like. Spicy soy flavours are good.
  • Stock base (optional, the aromatic stock base from Essential Cuisine is good, just add water)

Method

Make up about 2 litres of aromatic stock base to the recipe on the tub (40g to 1-litre brought to the boil).
Mix together all the dry ingredients then add water and beat into a dough by hand or by machine, it comes together very quickly.
Roll into a large sausage shape and cut into pieces.
Squash each piece a little and drop into the simmering stock and cook for 45 minutes to an hour.
Make a tempura batter and dip the pieces in and fry @ 180C for a few minutes until crispy. Toss in a hot sauce and serve.
