Vegan Pepper Steak – Model New Vegan

As a youngster rising up within the Midwest, we thought we have been consuming FANCY once we had pepper steak. One other consolation meals meal from my youth solely this time made 100% vegan and oil-free.

I used onion and bell pepper strips for the veggies, and portobello mushrooms for the steak.  For those who’re not into mushrooms, I believe soy curls would work properly too.

And the sauce!  Oh my gosh – the sauce!  

This fast and simple sauce marries the flavors of the peppers and the mushrooms completely.

I additionally wish to thank one among my readers for the suggestion.  Pepper Steak is a type of long-forgotten meals I used to eat on a regular basis after I was an omnivore – however actually by no means thought of attempting to duplicate it – till now.

I am SO glad I did!  And it was SO straightforward!

For those who take pleasure in an excellent stir-fry – this Vegan Pepper Steak will immediately be added to your meal rotation – assured!

Vegan Pepper Steak

This stir fry is tremendous straightforward to make and comes collectively in minutes as soon as the prep work is completed.

Onions, bell peppers, and portobello mushrooms make up the majority of the stir fry – seasoned with a couple of cloves of garlic and a few minced ginger.

I marinated the mushrooms in a little bit tamari and mirin – which is a candy Japanese Cooking Wine you must be capable to discover in any native grocery retailer.  Look within the Asian part subsequent to the rice vinegar and soy sauce.

The sauce is a combination of tamari, mirin, veggie broth, black pepper, cornstarch, and only a scant teaspoon of tahini for some unbelievable sesame taste.  

I began by marinating the mushrooms after which letting them sit whereas I chopped my veggies and made the sauce.

As soon as every thing is chopped and prepped and the sauce is completed, warmth a skillet or wok on excessive warmth till a couple of drops of water sizzle if you drop them in.  Then add your garlic and ginger and a splash of water as essential to maintain it from sticking.

NOTE:  I don’t use oil for stir-frying.  

I exploit an occasional splash of water in my pan to maintain issues from sticking – or among the sauce – however that is it.  Strive stir-frying with out oil – and you will be amazed at how good your meals will begin to style with out it! 

As soon as the garlic and ginger develop into aromatic, add the mushrooms (with the marinade), and stir fry till many of the liquid evaporates.

Eradicating the mushrooms to a separate pan, deglaze the wok with a little bit little bit of water, after which add the peppers and onions.  Stir fry the veggies till they start to prepare dinner down a bit,  after which add the mushrooms again in, adopted by the sauce.

It would start to thicken instantly.  Stir properly to coat after which serve instantly over noodles or rice.

Neglect about takeout!  It is a lot simpler (and more healthy) to make your favourite Chinese language takeout dishes at dwelling!

I hope you take pleasure in this as a lot as we did!
