Anyone got any good recipes to share? My sister's boyfriend is coming (despite my objections) to spend thanksgiving (small UK gathering, just me, my dad and my sister and her boyfriend; my family has American connections hence why thanksgiving is a thing with us before people ask) and he's very anti vegan and has already started complaining that the food is going to be "boring and tasteless" in an attempt to force me to give in and have meat on the table (not happening).
So best ideas, products and recipes are much appreciated.
Part of what is so frustrating is that his family don't do Thanksgiving, it's just my family because we have American family. So it's not like he's "used to something else". My family is his only connection with it and so it's not like anyone else is going to cook him a meal of that size and complexity. He's literally the only one who is making a fuss about meat and he thinks he can get his way by using the threat of not seeing my sister. Apologies for the rant I'm just pissed he's trying this after I invited him partly as an attempt to try and be nice to him for the sake of my sister.
Thank you so much for the recipe. I'm saving it in my cookbook as a general seitan recipe, I've never made my own (nor did I realise it was so easy). That does seem like a good solution that might shut him up for a bit. I'll do some experimenting and try and get his beloved turkey/chicken flavour.
