Serves 2

Ingredients:

• 120g sushi rice
• 40g brown sugar
• 175ml water
• 30ml soy sauce
• Thumb of ginger, grated
• 1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
• 1 tbsp cornflour
• 1 tbsp sesame or vegetable oil
• 150g Chilli and Garlic Seitan, cut into large chunks
• 2 large handfuls of spinach
• 2 tbsp sesame seeds
• 2 spring onions, finely chopped

Method:

• Cook the rice as per the packet instructions. This usually takes around half an hour.
• Put the sugar and water into a saucepan. Bring to a simmer and stir until the sugar has dissolved. Add the soy sauce and ginger and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes or until starting to thicken.
• In a small dish or ramekin, mix together the cornflour and 1 tbsp water until completely smooth. Pour into the saucepan while stirring the teriyaki sauce to prevent lumps from forming. Add the rice vinegar and stir again. Cook for a further 3-4 minutes or until the sauce is thick and glossy. Remove from the heat.
• Heat the oil in a frying pan and add the seitan. Fry for a few minutes until starting to crisp up on the outside, then add the teriyaki sauce. Stir to coat and cook for one or two minutes more until hot through.
• Divide the rice between two bowls and add a handful of spinach on the side. Top the rice with the teriyaki seitan, then sprinkle with the sesame seeds and spring onions.
