SOY BOLOGNESE

INGREDIENTS

- 2 to 3 tea cups granulated soy (unsoaked)
- 1 tea cup white wine (you can replace it with water)
- 1 to 2 tea cups water
- 1 tea cup tomato pulp (not tomato paste)
- olive oil

- 1 medium sized onion - chopped

- some garlic cloves - sliced
- some mushroom - sliced
- vegetables cut into small cubes (OPTIONAL) - I used: carrots, green peas, eggplant and a little green bell pepper

- seasoning: 1tbsp brown sugar, some salt, pepper, paprika, dry basil and dry parsley

STEPS:

1 and 2- Follow granulated soy package instructions. Soak in water for 15 min, drain and squeeze out excess water. Set aside.

Granulated soy is a good minced meat substitute. It doesn't taste like meat, but its texture resembles meat's... It taste whatever you add to it, it's basically granulated "sponges".
3- Fry garlic and onion with olive oil
4- Add in tomato pulp and seasoning
5- Add soy, and stir/mix well

6- Add wine, water, vegetable cubes and mushroom, let it boil/cook in medium-low heat with the lid on. Until carrots are cooked.
7- Cut eggplant into bigger cubes (cut fast to prevent oxidation), and add it to the sauce. Cook until eggplant softens. Add brown sugar and more salt if necessary. DONE.

You can serve it with cooked pasta or make lasagna out of it (just layer everything with a little bèchamel and grated cheese (soy) cheese).
