Rich Mushroom Ragu with Fresh Herbs
Savor a warm, hearty mushroom ragu enriched with tender chunks of seitan and a burst of fresh herbs. This dish melds earthy cremini mushrooms with the robust flavor of seitan in a savory tomato base accented by garlic, onion, and a hint of red wine, finishing with a sprinkle of fresh basil and thyme for a deeply satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
200g Cremini Mushrooms
100g Seitan
1 cup Canned Diced Tomatoes
1 small Yellow Onion
2 cloves Garlic
1 tbsp Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
1/4 cup Dry Red Wine
1/4 cup Fresh Basil
1 tbsp Fresh Thyme
Salt, Pepper & Red Pepper Flakes to taste
PREPARATION
Clean and slice the cremini mushrooms. Dice the yellow onion and mince the garlic.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until softened and fragrant.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Sauté until they begin to release their moisture and develop a rich, golden color.
Dice the seitan into bite-sized pieces and add it to the skillet. Continue to cook for a few minutes allowing the seitan to lightly brown.
Pour in the red wine to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom for extra flavor.
Stir in the canned diced tomatoes along with a pinch of salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Reduce the heat and let the ragu simmer for about 10-12 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Just before serving, stir in the fresh basil and thyme. Adjust seasonings as needed.
Serve hot as a hearty breakfast, lunch, or dinner option, enjoying the blend of umami-rich mushrooms with the protein punch of seitan.
