Preparation time: 30 minutes Baking time: 40 minutes Total time: 70 minutes Number of servings: 6 Ingredients: - 200 g soy granules - 100 g rice (preferably long-grain for better texture) - 2 large carrots, grated - 1 small zucchini, grated - 1 large onion, finely chopped - 2 garlic cloves, chopped - 4 eggs - 100 g feta cheese or cottage cheese - 2 tablespoons olive oil - 1 bunch of fresh parsley, chopped - Salt and pepper, to taste - 1 teaspoon sweet paprika (optional) Instructions: 1. Preparing the soy granules: Start by adding the soy granules to a bowl with water and a pinch of salt. Simmer them on low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 15-20 minutes, or until they swell and become soft. After that, drain them well and let them cool. 2. Preparing the rice: Rinse the rice under cold water to remove excess starch. Then, add it to a pot with water (1:2 ratio) and a pinch of salt. Simmer on low heat for 15-20 minutes, until the water is absorbed and the rice is soft. Then, let it cool. 3. Sautéing the vegetables: In a pan, heat the olive oil. Add the onion and garlic, sautéing them over medium heat until translucent. Then, add the grated carrot and zucchini, mixing well. Cook the vegetables for 5-7 minutes until they soften but remain crunchy. Season with salt, pepper, and sweet paprika if using. 4. Final mixture: In a large bowl, combine the soy granules, cooked rice, sautéed vegetables, and chopped parsley. Add the beaten eggs and feta or cottage cheese. Mix well until homogeneous. Check the taste and adjust the seasonings as desired. 5. Baking: Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Grease a baking dish with a little oil and pour the loaf mixture into the dish, leveling it evenly. Bake in the oven for 30-40 minutes, until the surface turns golden and slightly crispy. 6. Serving: Let the loaf cool for a few minutes before cutting it into portions. You can serve it warm or cold, alongside a fresh salad or with a spoonful of Greek yogurt for added freshness. Possible variations: - You can add other vegetables of your choice, such as mushrooms, spinach, or bell peppers, for a diverse flavor. - Replace feta cheese with tofu for a vegan version. - Experiment with spices like cumin or turmeric for an exotic touch. Practical tip: Make sure the vegetables are well squeezed before adding them to the mixture to avoid a loaf that is too wet. This vegetable loaf is not only a healthy recipe but also a perfect option for festive meals or picnics, providing you with a dish full of nutrition and flavor. Enjoy your meal!
