Minced Soybean sauce

Another typical Finnish food is "Jauhelihakastike", which is a creamy meat sauce made from minced meat. And again really simple and fast to make! Ofcourse i make my own vegetarian version, since i don't eat meat. This is the kind of food i like to make when i am tired after work and really don't have any energy or time to make any complex food. And this is really delicious too!

Here is what you need:

• Minced fake meat (minced soybeas, i used Häslans Kök frozen Sojafärsh)
• One onion
• 3 cloves of garlic
• Cream (optional Soy cream if you want to make a vegan version)
• Fresh Thyme
• Salt & pepper
• Paprica spice
• A hint of soy sauce
• Olive Oil

Fry the soymeat in oil on a pan with the onions and the garlic. Spice up well with salt, pepper, paprika and hint of soy sauce. Add cream and thyme, mix well and taste that you have enought spices. Serve with some boiled potatoes and steamed vegetables like cauliflower. Easy, fast and delicious!

"All you can Find"

I made this veggo-plate one day when i was too lazy to go to food store and just crabbed stuff that i had at home and made food from them. I cook like this quite often, haha! So i found some dry soyballs, green longbeans, beetroots and full grain couscous. Here's how i made this delicious dish:

• Dry soyballs/Soy bites (about 2-3 dl is enough for two people)
• Beetroots 
• Green beans ( i used frozen ones)
• Couscous
• Butter
• Garlic 
• Salt & Pepper
• Olive oil
• Spices like, garlic-pepper mix, grilling spice and cummin-pepper mix

First peel the beetroots, cut them in cubes and put in a boiling water. Add a hint of salt on the water. Put the green beans on a bowl to melt. Boil some water on a waterboiler and pour it into a bowl, where you add the dry soyballs and cover it with the lit. Let them stay covered for about 10-15 minutes, until they are soft. (Optional: You can also boil them in a pot). Then when the soyballs are soft, pour the water out, run some cold water on top of them (to make them cool down quickly) and squeeze the water out of the balls with your hands. Add the balls into a bowl, add olive oil and the mixed spices. You can use your own imagination to spice them up. I always mix different spices.After that pour some olive oil on pan and heat it up. Fry the balls until they are crispy. Put them on side to wait. Add some oil on the pan and fry the green beans. Just add hint of salt and pepper. Put them on the side to wait. Meanwhile boil some water with the water boiler again. Add about 3 dl couscous into a bowl. Pour about 2 dl water in and mix, add more water if looks too dry. Add some salt and a big chunk of butter. Mixx well, cover with a lit and put a side to wait for about 3-5 minutes. The beetroots should be ready at this point. Pour the water out, add some butter, chopped garlic, salt & pepper and mix. Serve everything together and enjoy. This was delicious!
