Seitan Pepper Steak

== Description ==
* Ron Pickarski's Friendly Fo
== Ingredients ==
* 1⅓ oz (1 package) dried, sliced shiitake mushrooms (or 1 to 1½ cups regular mushrooms)
* 2 cups water
* 3 tbsp tamari
* 2 cups flaked seitan
* 1 cup diced onions
* ½ cup diced red bell peppers
* 2 tbsp sesame oil (to sauté use appropriate replacement)
* 2 tbsp minced garlic
* 2 tbsp chopped basil
* ½ cup diced green bell peppers
* ¼ cup sherry
* 2 cups water
* 3 tbsp barley miso or other dark miso
* 2 tbsp tomato paste (tomato is never just 'optional' MC)
* 1 tbsp tamari
* ¼ cup arrowroot, dissolved in ¼ cup water.
== Directions ==
# If you are using the shiitake mushrooms, place them in a bowl and cover them with hot water. Soak until soft (about 30 minutes).
# Then place the soaked mushrooms in a pot with 2 cups of water (use the soaking liquid) and 3 tablespoons tamari.
# Simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes, and set aside.
# Sauté the seitan, mushrooms, onions, and red bell peppers in the oil (I guess that would be water here, MC) along with the garlic and basil.
# When the vegetables are tender (half cooked), add the green bell peppers, sherry, and 1¾ cups water.
# Mix the miso and ¼ cup water, along with the tomato paste and the tablespoon of tamari, if you wish.
# Add to the sautéed vegetables.
# Add the dissolved arrowroot and continue to simmer, while stirring constantly, until the sauce has thickened.
# Serve the seitan pepper steak with noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes.
