Ingredients
  • 38.4 g jasmine rice
  • 0.75 cup water
  • 73.7 g seitan
  • 15 g garlic
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 250 g kabocha squash
  • 0.5 tsp ground turmeric
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 100 g white onion
  • 59.3 g chia seeds
  • 0.5 tsp ground sumac
Method
  1. 01Rinse the dry jasmine rice until water runs clear, combine with 180 ml water and a pinch of salt in a small pot, bring to a boil, cover, and steam on low for 15 minutes until fluffy.
  2. 02In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the chia seeds for 2 to 3 minutes until fragrant. Mix half of the finely chopped white onions with the toasted chia seeds in a small bowl to make a crunchy Ethiopian-style relish; set aside.
  3. 03In a saucepan, place cubed kabocha squash with 60 ml water, half the minced garlic, ground turmeric, and a pinch of salt. Simmer covered for 12 to 15 minutes until fork-tender, then lightly mash with a fork.
  4. 04Heat olive oil in a wide pan over medium-high heat. Add the diced seitan, remaining white onions, and remaining minced garlic. Sear for 5 to 7 minutes until seitan edges are crisp and browned.
  5. 05Mound the steamed jasmine rice in the center of the plate. Arrange the seitan tibs, turmeric kabocha mash, and chia-onion relish in separate mounds around the rice.
  6. 06Finish by dusting ground sumac over the dish for a bright, tart accent before serving.
