Instructions

  • Heat the olive oil in a skillet over a high heat, add the seitan and sear, stirring occasionally, for 4-5 minutes until it begins to caramelize.
  • Add the red onion and chili peppers and cook, tossing constantly, for 3 minutes until the onions have just started to soften. Add the tomatoes, stir through and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes. Now add the garlic, a good pinch of salt, and a couple cracks of black pepper and let cook for a further minute.
  • Reduce the heat to medium and add the tamari and apple cider vinegar, stirring until the seitan and vegetables are fully coated in the sauce. Simmer for 1-1½ minutes to allow the sauce to thicken slightly.
  • Remove the skillet from heat and add the French fries, tossing to completely coat in the sauce. Garnish with cilantro and serve immediately.
