This meatless crumble recipe uses spices and seasoning blends to add flavor. Use a prepared seasoning blend or create your own blend of spices. The spice method is a great way to explore a wide-variety of flavors.
The amount of spices used can be adjusted to your taste - test a small portion and adjust the level of flavor before preparing the whole batch. If your seasoning blend contains salt or you are adding flavors to your wet ingredients (e.g., seasoned broth or soy sauce), adjust the amount of salt, accordingly.
1 to 2 teaspoons spices or seasoning blend (your choice)
1/2 teaspoon salt, if desired
1 tablespoon(s) oil
Directions
Put Original Plant Protein Mix in a bowl. Add spices or seasoning blend and salt. Mix until dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
Gradually add water into the bowl while stirring frequently with a fork. Stop adding water when the mixture is just moist. If the mix is too dry, add one teaspoon of water at a time and continue stirring until the dry mix is no longer visible. Let mixture rest while you heat up the pan.
Heat a wide pan over medium heat. Add oil to cover the bottom of the pan. Break mixture into crumbles and add it to the pan in a single layer. Fry for about 5-6 minutes, stirring regularly, until crispy.
Remove the pan from the heat, adjust seasoning as needed, and let the crumbles rest for about 10 minutes.
