Vegan Zürcher Geschnetzeltes with Rösti

Ingredients

• 1 lb Seitan
• 1 lb Mushrooms
• 1 medium Onion
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 2 tablespoons Vegan Butter
• 1/2 cup Dry White Wine
• 1 cup Vegetable Broth
• 1/2 cup Vegan Cream
• 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
• 1/4 cup Fresh Parsley
• 2 lb Potatoes
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper

Instructions

1. 1Peel and coarsely grate the 2 lb of potatoes. In a medium bowl, mix the grated potatoes with the 1 teaspoon of salt and the 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a flat patty. Heat 1 tablespoon of the vegan butter in a 10-inch non-stick skillet over medium-high heat (375°F / 190°C). Cook the patties for 5-7 minutes per side, until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove the rösti from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
2. 2Slice the 1 lb of seitan into thin strips, about 1/4-inch thick. Slice the 1 lb of mushrooms. Finely dice the 1 medium onion and mince the 2 cloves of garlic.
3. 3In the same 10-inch non-stick skillet, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegan butter over medium heat (300°F / 150°C). Add the diced onion and minced garlic and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are softened and translucent. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring, until they have released their liquid and started to brown.
4. 4Add the seitan strips to the skillet with the mushrooms, onion, and garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring, until the seitan is heated through.
5. 5Pour the 1/2 cup of dry white wine into the skillet. Let it bubble and cook for 1-2 minutes, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan, until the wine has reduced by about half.
6. 6Pour in the 1 cup of vegetable broth and the 1/2 cup of vegan cream. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat (250°F / 120°C). Cook for 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon.
7. 7Stir in the 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and the 1/4 cup of fresh parsley. Taste the sauce and add more salt or pepper if needed.
8. 8To serve, place one of the crispy rösti on each plate. Spoon the seitan and mushroom mixture over the top of each rösti.
