This is how you make it
- Finely chop the onion. Press the garlic. Slice the pointed pepper into strips. Shred the white cabbage very thin.
- Drain the seitan and keep the liquid.
- Heat the wok with coconut oil. Briefly fry the onion, then add the seitan, garlic, pepper and cabbage. Stir fry until the veggies are just soft. Add a splash of seitan liquid if it starts to stick.
- Mix all sauce ingredients in a small bowl and add a bit of seitan liquid so the miso dissolves well.
- Add the heat and eat ramen to the veggies, pour the sauce over it and add a little more seitan liquid if needed. After a minute of frying, gently loosen the noodles with a fork.
- Chop the peanuts.
- Divide the noodles over the plates and top with peanuts. If you like heat, add sriracha to taste.
Tip(s)
- Want a bit more umami, add half a teaspoon of extra miso or a splash of tamari.
- Prefer it a little sweeter, add a small splash of kecap or maple syrup.
