Instructions
 

Soy Curl Asada

  • Rehydrate the soy curls by covering them in some water for about 10 minutes.
  • While soy curls are hydrating, prepare the marinade by adding the rest of the ingredients in a bowl and whisk to combine.
  • Strain your soy curls, and using your bare hands, squeeze out the excess water. You want them to be as dry as possible.
  • Sauté your soy curls in a pan over medium heat in a bit of oil for about 6 minutes or so, until slightly browned.
  • Add in the marinade and reduce down to your desired consistency, should take about 30 - 45 minutes. Keep warm on low.

PICO DE GALLO

  • Combine everything in a bowl and season to taste.

GUACAMOLE

  • Mash the avocado and combine everything in a bowl and season to taste.

Fries

  • Bake or Air Fry your Frozen Fries according to the instructions. Season with Taco Seasoning! You can also Deep Fry them if you wish. Bring a pot of neutral oil (like Vegetable, Peanut or Canola) up to 375 F. Carefully add the fries in batches and fry until golden brown. Remove and season immediately with the Taco Seasoning. Let them rest on a wire rack.

Sandwich

  • Split your roll in half, leaving a hinge. You can hollow it out a bit if desired. Then layer vegan sour cream on one side, and the guacamole on the other, then add fries, asada, cheese (sauce), and pico de gall. Roll up the sandwich in deli paper if desired. Enjoy!

Notes

VEGAN CHEESE - Use your favorite vegan cheese shreds! I like Follow Your Heart the best these days! If you want to make it saucy, simply melt the cheese in a saucepan. Add as much unsweetened plant milk as you need to get the desired consistency.
You can also add directly to the asada soy curls and melt over them too.
Or make the Cheese Sauce from my Cheesesteak Recipe!
