Mashed potatoes with soy

Mashed potatoes with soy are served with soy schnitzel pieces simmered in spicy ketchup. The mash stays soft and is served alongside the soy, with red sauce pooled around the pieces and a hint of oregano and basil. For the potatoes, I choose slices of similar thickness so they soften at about the same time. Preparation: 20 minutes. Cooking: 60 minutes. Total time: 80 minutes. Servings: 4.

Ingredients
- 1 kg potatoes
- 1500 ml water for boiling the potatoes
- 1 teaspoon salt for boiling the potatoes
- 100 g soy schnitzel pieces
- 1000 ml water for boiling the soy
- 1 teaspoon salt for boiling the soy
- 50 g butter or margarine
- 1/2 teaspoon salt for the mash
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper for the mash
- 1 teaspoon Vegeta seasoning
- 3 tablespoons oil
- 250 ml water for the sauce
- 5 tablespoons spicy ketchup
- 1/2 teaspoon salt for the sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper for the sauce
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1 teaspoon basil
- 15 g parsley
Preparation
1. Peel the potatoes, rinse them and cut them into slices about 2-3 cm thick. Put them in a pot with 1500 ml water and 1 teaspoon salt; boil for 20 minutes, until a fork slides in easily. 2. In another pot, boil the soy schnitzel pieces in 1000 ml water with 1 teaspoon salt for 20 minutes, until softened. Drain well and cut each piece into 2-3 pieces. 3. Drain the potatoes and add 50 g butter or margarine, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper and 1 teaspoon Vegeta seasoning. Mash with a whisk until smooth, with no large lumps. 4. Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the soy, 250 ml water, 5 tablespoons spicy ketchup, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, 1 teaspoon oregano and 1 teaspoon basil. Simmer for 20 minutes, until the sauce thickens. 5. Finely chop the parsley and sprinkle it over the soy. Serve with the mashed potatoes.
Notes
The mash and sauce keep in separate, covered containers in the fridge for up to 3 days; reheat them separately, adding a little water to the sauce if it has thickened. Floury potatoes mash easily, while waxy ones can make the mash denser and slightly elastic. If the slices are more than about 3 cm thick, the potatoes may need a few extra minutes to boil. If the sauce is still too watery, let it reduce uncovered; if the ketchup is very salty, reduce the salt in the saucepan. For a dairy-free version, use 50 g dairy-free vegetable margarine instead of butter. The dish is reminiscent of stew served alongside mash; raw cabbage salad goes well with it.
Frequently asked questions
Why are the soy pieces still hard?
If they are still hard after boiling, leave them in boiling water for another 5 minutes, then drain well.
Can I use soy granules instead of soy schnitzel pieces?
Yes, boil 100 g granules in salted water for 10 minutes, then drain them before adding them to the saucepan.
Can I mash the potatoes with a mixer?
A hand masher is better; a mixer can work the potatoes too much and make them gluey.
