Balti Seitan Madras

---

I adapted this recipe from a chicken recipe in an indian cookbook. it's very flavorful and just the right amount of spice for my taste- but you can always make it spicier. It's my new favorite way to get protein!!

Steps

Mix the tomato paste , fennel seeds , ginger , coriander , garlic , chilli powder , curry powder , turmeric , lemon juice , salt , and water in a bowl.

---

Heat the vegetable oil in a pan and cook the onions until they are softened.

---

Pour the spice mixture into the pan and let simmer.

---

Break the seitan into pieces and add to the pan.

---

Let the seitan simmer for about 10 minutes , until much of the liquid has been absorbed by the seitan or has evaporated.

Remove the pan from the heat , stir in the chopped chiles , and serve.
