sauce

  • 3 pieces Onion, raw

  • 250 g Mushrooms, shiitake, fresh

  • 250 g Spinach, raw

  • 2 spoons Soy sauce, shoyu

Steps

  1. Clean the mushrooms, quickly rinse, dry, and finely chop. Peel, rinse, and chop the onion. Crumble the bread and grind it in an electric mixer. Transfer it to a bowl. Slice the seitan and also grind it in an electric mixer. In the bowl, mix the bread, seitan, mushrooms, onion, soy sauce, basil, and oregano. Place the kuzu in a cup, pour water over it, and dissolve it, then mix it into the mixture in the bowl.

  2. Shape the mixture into balls with your hands; use about 2 tablespoons of the mixture for each ball. Place the balls on a tray. Heat oil in a deep pan. It should be hot but not smoking. When you drop a ball into the oil, it should not sink to the bottom.

  3. Fry the balls until golden brown and crispy. Fry them gradually, a few at a time, so they do not touch each other in the pan. Place the fried balls on a plate lined with a paper towel to absorb excess oil.

  4. Peel, rinse, and chop the onion. Clean the mushrooms, quickly rinse, dry, and slice them. Clean, rinse, and chop the spinach. Heat oil in a wide pan and sauté the onion until translucent. Add the mushrooms and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the spinach, quickly sauté, season with sauce, and pour in the broth. Cook for another 5 minutes and remove from heat.

  5. Divide the mushroom and spinach sauce onto plates, add the fried balls, and serve.
