Ingredient Notes

Soy curls – usually available at natural food stores or online. (In Japan) I use dried soy curls by Daizu Labo , available at most large supermarkets.

Bamboo shoot – (bamboo sprouts) I used ready-to-eat bamboo shoots that come pre-boiled and thinly sliced. They’re sold in most Asian supermarkets. If you don’t have bamboo shoot, you can use other veggies like carrots, asparagus, onion, or string beans.

Mirin – a type of rice wine with a slightly sweet, tangy flavor. It’s a staple ingredient for many Japanese dishes, especially since it pairs really well with soy sauce. It’s readily available at Asian supermarkets and online.

Cooking Sake – alcohol made from fermented rice, sake adds umami and a sweet, mellow flavor. It also eliminates strong odors. If you don’t have it, replace it with cooking wine, or water.

How to make Vegan Pepper Steak

1. Rehydrate soy curls according to package and toss in cornstarch.

2. Heat cooking oil in a frying pan, and cook soy curls on medium heat until crispy. Add bamboo shoot and bell peppers, and cook for 2 more minutes.

3. Add the sauce to the pan, and cook until well combined. Serve with a bowl of white rice, and ENJOY!
