2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons shortening
1 large onion — diced
2 pounds potatoes — peeled
3 tablespoons oil — or chicken fat
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Cook potatoes in water. In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon
salt and shortenng, blending with your fingers. Add 2/3 cup watr from the
cooking potatoes. Knead lightly. Dough should be soft, but firm enough to
roll. Add a bit more flour, if necessary. Smooth into a ball and cover bowl.

Brown onion in oil. Drain and mash potatoes and add onion. Add salt and
pepper. Roll 1/3 of the dough into a thin rectangle, about 7“x14”. Place a
strip of potato mixture about 1 1/2″ wide and high along the long edge. Roll
like a jelly roll. Cut into 1 1/4″ pieces. Take each piece and stretch the
dough to cover the cut edges, unrolling slightly, if necessary. Knishes should

potato shows through. Repeat the process twice more with the remaining dough
and potatoes.

Place knishes on greased pans. Bake 30 minutes at 400F, or until slightly
browned. If they are going to be frozen, bake only partially, and finish

Tempeh Paella

Recipe By : The Complete Soy Cookbook, by Paulette Mitchell, page 127
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Soyfoods Main Dishes, Vegetarian
Rice Vegetables
Mitchell: Complete Soy Cookbk

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 1/2 cups vegetable stock
1/4 teaspoon powdered saffron — (see Tip)
1 cup uncooked basmati rice
1 tablespoon olive oil
8 ounces tempeh — cut into strips
1 about 3 inches long by 1/2 inch wide
1/4 cup coarsely chopped onion
2 teaspoons minced garlic
14 1/2 ounces canned diced tomatoes — with juice
14 ounces canned artichoke hearts packed in water
drained and quartered
1/2 cup frozen peas — thawed
1/4 cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
drained and coarsely chopped
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes — or to taste
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper — or to taste
1 dash salt — or to taste
garnish — (optional)
1 sprig fresh flat-leaf parsley

Makes 4 servings

Paella, a Spanish classic, traditionally includes seafood and chicken.
This vegetarian version featuring tempeh captures the spirit of the dish in
a minimum of time but with a maximum of flourish.

Combine the vegetable stock and saffron in a medium saucepan; stir in the
rice. Bring the liquid to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to
medium-low; cover tightly and simmer until the liquid is completely
absorbed, about 15 minutes.

While the rice is cooking, heat the oil in a medium nonstick skillet over
medium-high heat. Add the tempeh, onion, and garlic; cook, turning the
tempeh strips occasionally, until lightly browned, about 5 minutes.

When the rice is done, fluff it with a fork. Reduce the heat to low. Stir
in the tomatoes and juice, artichoke hearts, peas, sun-dried tomatoes, red
pepper flakes, black pepper, and salt; cover until heated through, about 3
minutes. Adjust the seasonings to taste.

To serve, spread the rice-vegetable mixture on a large serving plate; top
with the tempeh strips and garnish.

TIP: Saffron, derived from a small purple crocus, is the world’s most
expensive spice. Fortunately, it is pungent and aromatic, so a little goes
a long way. Saffron can be purchased in threads (which should be crushed
just before using) or in powdered form. Store saffron in an airtight
container in a cool, dark place for up to 6 months. Turmeric will impart a
similar yellow color to food, but there is no substitute for saffron’s
exquisite flavor and earthy aroma.
