Does anyone else have foods that you only like when your mom makes them? This is a recipe from my Mom's collection that I decided to make Vegan. It was a little bit of a challenge since the main ingredient in hers is ground beef. Since I am able to make a pretty tasty beef substitute I thought I would give it a try. It turned out really good.
Porcupine Balls
(Makes 12)
Ingredients:
For "Beef":
1 1/2 Cups TVP
1 1/2 Cups Water
4 Tbsp Soy Sauce
2 Tbsp Vegan Worcestershire
2 Tbsp Nutritional Yeast
1 1/2 Tbsp Onion Powder
2 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
2 tsp Chili Powder
1 tsp Cumin
1/2 tsp Ground Ginger
1/4 tsp Pepper
To Make Balls:
2/3 Cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 Cup Applesauce
2 Cups Tomato Sauce
1 Small Onion, diced
Directions:
*Cook rice as per directions on package.
*Bring to a boil 1 1/2 Cups water and all seasonings for "beef" except for TVP.
*Remove from heat, add TVP, stir and cover. Let sit for at least 5 minutes. Then uncover, stir and allow to cool.
*In a large bowl combine cooked rice, diced onion, applesauce and TVP.
*With your hands, form into balls about the size of the palm of your hand.
*Pour sauce over the top of each ball.
*Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes (until sauce is bubbling)
