Ingredients 

  • 50 g textured soy protein cubes
  • 2 onions sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 5 Tbsp tomato puree
  • 1 L vegetable stock or water
  • 2 Tbsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp caraway seeds
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • salt
  • black pepper

Instructions

  • In a pot, bring some water to a boil, add the soy cubes and cook for 10-15 minutes. Drain well.
  • In a large pan, saute the garlic and onion in olive oil until translucent.
  • Add the soy cubes. Season with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and caraway seeds, then cook for 1-2 minutes.
  • Add the tomato puree, stir, and cook for 2-3 minutes.
  • Add the vegetable stock, lower the heat, and cook for 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the soy cubes are tender and the broth turns a deep rusty red. Taste and adjust the seasoning before serving.

Notes

For extra depth, let the soup simmer a little longer so the soy cubes soak up the smoky paprika broth. Taste and adjust salt and pepper before serving.
