Curry Pineapple Rice Bowl (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Pineapple Rice

01 - 1 cup basmati rice
02 - 20 oz can of pineapple chunks or crushed pineapple in its juice
03 - 1 cup water
04 - 1 tablespoon curry powder
05 - 1/2 teaspoon table salt
06 - 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper (optional)

→ Curry Seitan

07 - 16 oz seitan (wheat-based protein)
08 - 3 tablespoons cooking oil (split into portions)
09 - 2 tablespoons curry powder
10 - 1/2 teaspoon red chili flakes (optional)
11 - 1 teaspoon brown sugar
12 - 2 tablespoons soy sauce

# Instructions:

01 - Put the rice, pineapple along with the juice, water, curry powder, salt, and red chili flakes into a medium pot. Cover the pot and simmer over medium heat for about 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is soft.
02 - Grab a medium pan and place it over medium heat. Pour in 2 tablespoons of oil, followed by curry powder and red chili flakes. Stir it around for 4 minutes until fragrant. Take the pan off the heat and add soy sauce and brown sugar.
03 - Put the pan back on the burner and drizzle in the last bit of oil. Drop in the seitan and cook for 4-5 minutes until heated all the way through.
04 - Pour the curry sauce over the seitan and give it a good stir so it's evenly coated. Spoon it up with the pineapple rice and enjoy!

# Notes:

01 - Dial the spice up or down by leaving out the red chili flakes.
02 - To ensure your rice cooks properly, use the liquid from the canned pineapple.
03 - Since seitan is made from wheat, it’s not safe for gluten-free diets.
