Next week I have a holiday, ya-hay.
For most people a weeks holiday isn't a biggy; for me it's an fraught exercise of juggling; a tick-tock of non-causality. Thursday I didn't expect to get the next week off, but I saw the chance. So I have a week off.
When I have any time off I like to mark the occasion by making a meal that I don't normally make. Tonight I decided upon sausages.
Now I'm a vegetarian Ceoliac, so I'm going to raise some hackles here. People who eat meat seem to feel that they have the copyright upon sausages. They have issues about non-carnivores eating them. And now I'm going to exclude wheat too!
Still here is my recipe.
- Soak the TVP in boiling water and a wee bit of soy sauce
- Drain: Add...
- Lots of fresh herbs
- Onions, or old chives
- Salt, pepper
- A small tsp of paprika
- Garam flour until the mix seems to be coming together
- (and this is the clever bit) gluten-free bicarbomate of soda
- Leave for at least an hour
- Roll into rolls and fry.
So I'm off to enjoy. I may be some time...

What's TVP chap?New comment
Textured veggie protein maybe?
Meat or otherwise, I don't like or eat sausages!

Shite.
It is textured vegetable protein. I'd made the assumption that there was no gluten.
I am going to die of an ignorence of what's in my food.

Being gluten-aware, I hadn't thought of TVP, but then again, no-one in my house is veggie and those who visit who are, aren't coeliac.New comment
Sounds interesting Neil. What did it taste like - if you're still with us .
Take care.

TVP is ok for me, I checked.
Sausages were nice. Could have done with a wee bit more taste perhaps. Next time I'll try mint and curry powder.
