[Boiled Leg of Lamb with Onion, Caper, or Tomato Sauce]
...Julia says this is a delicious and very easy way to cook a vegan leg of lamb...
...basically you just boil it in salty water...and first you'll need to make the seitan of course...I used the same simple vegan 'lamb' recipe as before:
dry:
1 1/2 cup vital wheat gluten
1/4 cup soy flour
1 Tbsp vegan beef flavored bouillon
1/4 tsp garlic powder
liquid
1 cup red wine
1 1/2 tbsp Braggs Liquid Aminos
1 tsp tamari
...shaped it into a sort of a leg-gy shape...and wrapped in cheesecloth...like you usually do for boiled seitan...
...and then you just make some salty water...
...and then Julia says...Just simmer it in a kettle of salted water until it is done...1/2 tsp salt per quart of water...so it is really easy...like she said...
...when it's done...unwrap it and put it on a serving tray...
...and then she gives you three choices for sauces to serve with this simple dish...and we chose the Sauce Soubise...a pretty simple onion bechamel...
...Julia says to pass the sauce in a warmed sauceboat...we used our little cut glass cream pitcher though...
...and poured it over the lamb seitan...
...it was pretty delicious...I'd make it again...
