    Instructions

    1. 1

      Cut 400 grams of firm seitan into 2-inch cubes.

    2. 2

      Heat 2 tablespoons of peanut oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat, then add 1 large chopped onion and cook until softened for about 5 minutes.

    3. 3

      Stir in 4 cloves of minced garlic, 2 tablespoons of grated fresh ginger, 1 teaspoon of turmeric powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of Burmese chili powder, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.

    4. 4

      Incorporate 1 can (400 grams) of diced tomatoes, 3 tablespoons of soy sauce, and 2 cups of vegetable broth, bringing the mixture to a simmer.

    5. 5

      Add the seitan cubes to the simmering liquid, ensuring they are mostly submerged, then reduce heat to low, cover the pot, and braise for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the seitan is tender and flavors have melded.

    6. 6

      Remove from heat, stir in 1 tablespoon of fresh lime juice, and garnish with 1/4 cup of fresh cilantro before serving.
