Ingredients
Scale
Vegan Meat:
- 1 cup Vital Wheat Gluten flour
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 3 teaspoons onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 tablespoon cumin
- 2 tablespoons Braggs Liquid Aminos
- 3 tablespoons oil
- 2/3 cup cold water
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine dry ingredients.
- Make a well in the middle, add Braggs, oil, and cold water. Combine to make a dough.
- Knead dough for 3-4 minutes.
- Roll dough in parchment paper, shape into a log and twist the ends. Cover with foil and twist the ends again.
- Steam or simmer in a pot of water for 60 minutes. Cool before slicing thinly.
- Use naan, pita, or flatbread to assemble the sandwich. We usually make our own flatbread. Fill the bread with the sliced vegan meat, tomatoes, and sweet onion. Cover with Tzatziki sauce. Wrap in parchment paper or foil to make it easier to eat.
Tzatziki Sauce
- 1/3 large cucumber (petite diced)
- 1 clove garlic, crushed
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
- 1/2 teaspoon dried dill (or 1 tablespoon fresh)
- 5 oz plain vegan yogurt
