Directions
Aleecha is a mixed vegetable stew. Quemam contains an ingredient not found in the US. I’d substitute dry berebere. In dry pan over moderate low heat, stir fry onion, garlic, and carrots for 2 mins. Add 1/2c of the water and cook 5 mins longer. Add the oil and continue to simmer. Add the tumeric, chilies, and cabbage. Cover the pan and steam to reduce the bulk for 2 mins. Stir well and add the quemam, tomato paste, salt and the potatoes. Cover the pan and cook for 5 mins. Add the remaining water and simmer for 5 minutes more to soften the potatoes and thicken the sauce somewhat. Serve at room temperature with Injeera.

Adai

Servings: 6 Servings
Category: Vegetarian | Indian
Ingredients

  • 1 c Rice
  • 1/3 c Urad dal
  • 1/3 c Chana dal
  • 1/3 c Yellow split peas
  • 1 ts Salt
  • 1 ts Red chili powder
  • 1 lg Onion (opt)
  • 1 Carrot (opt)
  • 1/4 c Coconut, grated (opt)

Directions
Mix rice, chana dal, urad dal, and yellow split peas in a large vessel. Soak in a lot of water for about 2 hours. Grind the soaked mixture with chili powder and salt coarsely, without adding much water. Ferment for about 3 – 4 hours, then refrigerate or freeze. In cold weather, the fermenting process might take longer, and it might be a good idea to ferment in an oven (the pilot light will keep the mixture warm). Add either onions (finely cut), carrot (grated) or coconut before preparing. Freezing Notes If freezing, only ferment for about an hour. The mixture will have to be left out for a while before being ready to use. Rajeev Krishnamoorthy, rajeev@twain.EE.CORNELL.EDU From Gemini’s MASSIVE MealMaster collection at www.synapse.com/~gemini

A Bowl of Red (Reno Red)

Servings: 8 Servings
Category: Vegetarian | Vegan | Chili
Ingredients

  • 6 Chilis ( or more)
  • 3 c -cold water
  • 1 pk TVP (12oz)
  • 2 tb Olive oil
  • 1 md Onion, finely chopped
  • 1 cl Garlic; minced
  • 1 tb Cumin
  • 1/2 ts Red pepper
  • 1 tb Paprika
  • 12 c -water

Directions
Wash, stem and remove the seeds from the chilies. Put the chilies in 3 cups cold water and bring to a boil. After about 45 minutes to an hour, the skins should slop easily. Mash the pulp to a paste. If this seems too difficult, you can substitute chili powder at a ratio of 1 teaspoon of chili powder to 1 pod of chili. Read the instructions on the so or TVP package to see if the product was soaked before hand. If not, use some of the water to prepare this ingredient. Saute the onions in olive oil until translucent. Add the garlic and spices the 12 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then add the TVP nuggets. Reduce to a simmer, cook for 30 minutes to an hour. If this seems too runny, you can thicken with masa, the cornmeal flour used in tortillas. When made in bulk this chili can easily be frozen. total calories per serving: 163 fat:4g (22%) Source: Vegetarian Journal Jan/Feb 95 formatted 2/17/95 Posted to MM-Recipes Digest V4 #295 by “Robert Ellis” on Nov 5, 1997

Beans and Tvp Burritos

Servings: 10 Servings
Category: Vegetarian | Tex-mex | Main dish.
Ingredients

  • 10 lg (10″) tortillas or chapatis
  • 1 c Dried pinto beans, soaked
  • Overnight in 3 cups water
  • 1 Bay leaf
  • 3 Cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 c TVP granules or flakes
  • 1/2 c (less 1 T.) hot water
  • 2 ts Chili powder
  • 1 ts Cumin
  • 1 ts Salt
  • 1/2 ts Oregano
  • 1 tb Olive oil
  • 1 c Onion, chopped

Directions
Drain, rinse and cook the beans until tender (70-90 minutes) in 3 cups of water with the bay leaf and garlic. Drain the beans, but reserve the liquid in case it is needed later to thin the filling mixture. Combine the TVP, hot water, hot bean liquid, chili powder, cumin, salt and oregano. Saute the onion in the olive oil in a good sized skilled until softened. Add the seasoned TVP and cook a few minutes more. Stir in the cooked beans, then transfer mixture to a food processor or blender and mash to a fairly smooth textured filling, adding a little of the bean liquid if mixture is too thick. Taste and add a little hot sauce if desired. If done in a blender, you may need to do it in two batches, then mix the batches together. To assemble: heat a griddle or skillet until a few drops of water dance on the surface. Dry fry each tortilla on both sides until the surface of the tortilla begins to bubble and brown slightly. Keep them warm in a thick towel. When all are heated, place about 1/3 cup of filling down one side of a tortilla and roll up. You may wish to enclose or serve with side dishes of shredded lettuce, grated soy cheese, salsa sauce or sliced avocados. Serve immediately. To reheat: Burritos may be made ahead, kept wrapped, and baked before serving. Unwrap, place on cookie sheet, bursh tops lightly with oil if desired and bake at 350 degrees about 20 minutes.

Peel off waxed paper and cut into squares. Makes 16 2 inch squares. NOTE: A rich, moist brownie, so terrific you’ll probably want to make a double batch.
