right now i just put those bad boys in some veggie oil and fry for a couple of minutes... but i was thinking it might be better if i dip them in some kind of batter THEN fry it. but i've never really done that before.
i've got a hankerin' for some buffalo wings and i wanna get it done.
anyone?

This is the best batter fried seitan ever.
Fried Wheat Meat
Dry Ingredients:
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp pepper
1 cup flour
2 tbsp nooch
Wet Ingredients:
1 1/2 tbsp yellow mustard
1/4 cup water
and:
1 tbsp baking powder
1) Mix all the dry ingredients in bowl.
2) Mix mustard and water separate bowl.
3) Add 1/3 of the dry mixture into the wet mixture. It will get thick and batter-like.
4) Lastly, add the baking powder into the dry mxiture.
5) Coat the seitan with the mustard mixture, then with the dry mixture.
6) Fry in hot oil until golden and crispy.
These are awesome with bbq or in wraps, salad etc...they taste like kfc strips...which is just wrong, but so good.
thanks! can't wait to try.
whelp! made this tonight. tossed them in some franks red hot / terriyaki sauce... and it was about the best stuff ever.
Totally going to rock this recipe!
I have a recipe for Fried BBQ Seitan that is awesome! Sweet & Sour Seitan rocks too!
Gawd, that sounds good VS! I wish I didn't like fried food so much! >:D
I know! I have been avoiding fried foods for a long while now, but I am tempted to make this again...I used to make it like once a week! It is really easy to whip up and even tastes great cold out of the fridge.
the way i look at it...
i hardly EVER eat fried food anymore... so it was a welcome treat!
i'm doin this again tonight.
yeah... it's the third night this week.
you're an addict...i was afraid this would happen...

Ha! That's why I'm resisting this recipe...for now at least.
I printed it out....I've never cared for seitan really, but I am pretty excited to try this!
