Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Can substitute tofu for seitan.

  • London_Mummy on December 03, 2025

    This is a decent recipe for seitan, but it is very similar to many other tofu stir-fry recipes. I did not have shiitake mushrooms so substituted frozen sliced mushrooms. I did not have readymade hoisin sauce so I read the hoisin sauce recipe in "The Veggie Chinese Takeaway Cookbook" then added some white pepper, soy sauce, Chinese five spice, rice vinegar, sugar, sesame oil, chilli bean oil, garlic & ginger. These substitutions were all fine. A family member said, "I love seitan!" after eating it : )
