Method

1. Cut the seitan into bite-sized cubes and clean all the mushrooms, slicing them thinly.
2. In a wide pan, heat the olive oil with a crushed garlic clove until fragrant.
3. Add the seitan cubes and sear them over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes until lightly browned.
4. Add both types of mushrooms to the pan and continue cooking for 5 minutes as they release their moisture.
5. Stir in the tomato paste and a half cup of water (or vegetable broth), then reduce the heat.
6. Simmer gently for 10 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the seitan.
7. Discard the garlic and stir in the freshly chopped parsley.
8. Serve hot, ideally with a side of steamed vegetables or a slice of rye bread.

Tips

• Using a mix of fresh mushrooms and porcini provides a much deeper umami flavor to the dish.
• This stew is even better the next day as the seitan absorbs more of the mushroom flavors.
