Step 1
Soak the textured vegetable protein chunks in a bowl with some hot water (we added 2 cups or 500 ml of water) and 1 tablespoon of tamari or soy sauce for at least 15 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Step 2
Add the garlic, onion, green bell pepper, carrots and potato to a large pot and cook them with some water or oil over medium-high heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add more water or oil if needed.
Step 3
Add the flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
Step 4
Finally, add the tomato puree, vegetable stock or water and tomato paste. Stir and bring to a boil, then add the other tablespoon of tamari or soy sauce, textured vegetable protein chunks, bay leaves, paprika, pepper and salt. Stir and cook covered over medium heat for 25 to 30 minutes or until the carrots and potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally. Remove the bay leaves and serve immediately.
