Homemade Vegan Döner Kebab
Ingredients
- 350g Vital Wheat Gluten (VWG)
- 400g can of Chickpeas drained
- 300g pack of Silken Tofu
- 5T Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 4T Plant milk
- 2T Double Concentrate Tomato Puree
- 2T Lemon juice
- 1T Dextrose powder
- 1T Polish Mustard
- 30g Sachet of Kebab seasoning
- 2tsp Salt
- 2tsp Liquid Aminos
- 1tsp Dark Miso
Preparation
Add all ingredients except VWG to food processor and mix on high speed until smooth
On low speed, slowly add the VWG
Continue to mix for 2 minutes
Take a large metal skewer and tear off chunks of dough about the size of a tennis ball and flatten into a rough patty shape
Dip the patty in a bowl of olive oil and push onto the skewer
Repeat until all dough is used
Place on a sheet of baking paper large enough to wrap the kebab completely with excess to go over the skewer
Place the kebab and baking paper onto a large piece of extra strong foil with enough spare to wrap twice around the meat and plenty of excess
Drizzle oil, smoked paprika, lemon juice and a few squirts of liquid aminos over the kebab. Also season with salt and pepper
Wrap the baking paper over the meat
Roll the foil into a sausage fairly tightly
Now twist the ends around the skewer in opposite directions - one hand clockwise, the other anticlockwise. This will cause it to all tighten up
Use kitchen string to secure a tight knot on one end then wrap the string around the entire length using butcher knots until both ends are secure and tight
Place on a baking sheet in an oven at 150c for 2 hours
Cool to room temp then refrigerate for 24 hours
Unwrap and slice as thin as you can
Make a marinade: 3 garlic cloves mashed up in salt into a paste, juice of one lemon, 1/2 cup of olive oil, a few squirts of liquid aminos and a sachet of the kebab seasoning
Toss the meat in the marinade and cover
