YOU ARE NOT GOING TO BELIEVE IT'S VEGAN! MY CLASSIC MEATLESS MEATBALLS IN ITALIAN TOMATO SAUCE!

- Gather around, my lovelies for today we are going back to basics! In this episode, I will show you how to use some good old vegan ingredients, and by using a different method we are going to make the meatiest, tastiest meatless meatballs on the planet!
INGREDIENTS:
2 cups of TVP
3 tablespoons (could be more, read the note below) of vital wheat gluten flour
2 tablespoon of olive oil or vegetable oil
1 medium onion, grated
A squeeze of lemon or lime juice
Fresh parsley
FOR THE UMAMI BROTH:
3 tablespoons of soy sauce
1 teaspoon of vegan Worcestershire sauce (recipe below)
1 teaspoon of garlic powder
1 1/2 teaspoon of onion powder
1/3 teaspoon of ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon of MSG or mushroom powder
3 drops of liquid smoke or 1/5 teaspoon of powdered smoke
1 tablespoon of tomato puree
2 cups of water or veggie broth
1 tablespoon of lemon or lime juice
Salt to taste
FOR THE TOMATO SAUCE:
2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
1 whole garlic clove
Fresh basil leaves
1 large tin of Italian peeled tomatoes or tomato passata
Salt to taste
Black pepper to taste
Vegan parmesan
Fresh parsley
METHOD:
Sift the TVP, discard the dust, set aside.
*Make the broth:
Add all the ingredients for the broth in a bowl, whisk it together until all is incorporated.
Add the oil to a pan or a skillet, turn on the heat to medium, when the oil is hot, add the grated onions, sauté for a few minutes until lightly golden. Add the dry TVP, stir for about 4 minutes, be careful not to burn it.
Add the umami broth to the skillet, little by little, until all the broth is gone and the TVP has completely absorbed the broth and looks dried out and cooked through, it is very important that you don't see any broth left on the TVP skillet before you turn off the heat.
Add the umami broth to the skillet, little by little, until all the broth is gone.
Drizzle the lemon juice, add fresh parsley. Turn off the heat, reserve.
* Make the meatless Meatballs:
Add the cooked TVP to a bowl along with the vital wheat gluten flour, a few more drops of lemon or lime, mix and squeeze it between your hands until all is incorporated. There will be some loose TVP flakes, this is not a problem, it will all be incorporated once it is processed later.
Let the dough resting at room temp for 10 to 15 minutes. This step is very important for shaping the balls later.
Add the meatless meatballs dough into a food processor, process them until all is incorporated, the time will vary according to your food processor.
This step is very important for shaping the balls later.
Form the meatless balls, put them in a baking sheet, and bake them for 25 - 30 minutes at 185℃ (390℉). You can also shallow fry them until golden brown on all sides or air fry them.
It makes 20 to 25 meatless balls, depending on how big or small you shape the balls.
* Make the tomato sauce:
Add the extra virgin olive oil to a skillet in medium heat, when the oil is hot, add the whole garlic and the fresh basil leaves, stir for about 40 seconds, then add the peeled tomatoes or the tomato passata.
Add salt and black pepper, let it reduce.
Add the baked meatless meatballs in the sauce, mix the sauce with the meatballs, garnish with fresh parsley and vegan parmesan cheese.
NOTE:
1. The amount of vital wheat gluten flour will depend on how moist your cooked TVP is - if your cooked TVP ts more to the moist side, it'll require more gluten flour, if your cooked TVP is dryer, it will require less vital wheat gluten flour.

The cat in the background!😻
He makes a special appearance in the end too! 🥰
I though I was the only one who say that😂
is it real? looks like statue
I love that this channel doesn't double dip, as they like to say, by not saying or listing the full measurements/ingredients and making us click ad ridden sites instead for more money. It's gotten so annoying that I refuse to do it anymore. Thank you for adding it under the video!!
Thank you so much 😊 ❤️
Yes!! I agree!
Also, not having a scroll through an entire blog to find the recipe.
Guys, watch until the end to see JayJays special purring session! 🥰❤️🐱
✨♥️
🐱Love the cat I the window! Noticed right away🐾🐾❤️
Very cute purring 🐆
Jayjay is beautiful ❤️
Chef Jana, what do you mean with TBP?
Made these today and it was - as always with Chef Jana - delicious and very easy to put together. TIP for those trying out this recipe: be patient with the TVP, because it can take a loooong time for the broth to be completely absorbed (15-20 minutes in my case).
Unfortunately, there were no "meat"balls left for freezing after my husband was done with dinner ;-)
Will definitely be making these again! YUM
Just made these meatless meatballs. Oh my word! They are excellent. This is my new go-to recipe. Thank you! 🥰
Yaaaaayy!!!! Wonderful!
O
Delicious and oh so easy .Interesting fact about soya and the dust which affects taste .Your know so much .We get recipes and amazing facts :) Thanks Jana 👍🍷
Thank you so so much, Helena 😊
Janaaa, i've been thinking of trying to use tvp like this for ages, but didn't know what else to use, i'm so happy you posted this video!
My thoughts exactly!!!:-)
ughhhhh i can’t wait to make this. i haven’t had spaghetti in so long because i don’t eat pasta but i’ve been growing zucchini all summer. zoodles and meatballs. i CANT WAIT. this recipe looks amazing
Barilla has a red lentils pasta. There are plant based pastas.
Crazy, I've made soy meatballs for lunch today just as this video was released! They were ok, but your version looks so much better. Gonna try it next time! Obrigado!
Awesome! De nada!
chef Jana!!!!!!!🌈🦜☘ My kitchen is tiny, and I'm shy to try some of your recipies. I just love watching you, and your musical taste. Brilliant🎶 💙🌈
Thank you so much!
@@ChefJana hi, my favorite Chef....I hope your having a great day🦚🌲🌹
Yeh!!!! Just what I’ve been waiting for! A new recipe.
I love your videos, you’re one of the best vegan chefs of TH-cam xx
Yay! Thank you!
Totally agree!
I'd love to use these for Swedish Meatballs too! Thanks Chef Jana!
Thanku for the written recipe
Most welcome 😊
Jana, I made this today and it turned out great! The meatballs are so flavorful, and I baked them, they came out crispy on the outside. Thanks for the wonderful recipe 👍❤️
Great job!
This is going on my list for the next week😍 that tipp with the "dust" is genius!
Hope you like it!
Well thank God that you made this recipe, because I love meatballs. And that's something that I really miss and I know that yours are going to be terrific period And I know that they're going to be landing in my mouth really soon as well. your kitty is outside the window waiting for meatballs now your marinara sauce looks wonderful. I really like your method of cooking and preparing the meatballs.... So genius as usual!!
Thank you so much Chef Jana
You are so welcome my darling Trinity! Muah :)
ive used your tvp process twice now and im obsessed! its the only way ive been able to get restaurant quality results. cant wait to try this recipe
Yay! Thank you!
I made these 'meatballs' the other day, but wanted to freeze them so I steamed them for 20 minutes. We've just had them for dinner and they were delicious. I'll definitely be making them again.
These look amazing! I’m not going to be making them until later today but I can already tell they’re good because your recipes never let me down. I really love your channel. I love that you write out the ingredients underneath, it’s so helpful. I think your channel is way under appreciated and deserves a lot more subscribers. Thank you for all the work you put into sharing your recipes ❤️
OMG Jessica! Thank yip soooooo much, you are way too sweet, girl! Lots of love to you and have a fab weekend :)
I would make mine with red pepper sauce because I can't have tomato sauce. Great recipe!
Great idea! You can use a gravy as well!
I made these today. Before I put them in the processor, the crumbles looked and tasted so yummy. Once in the processor...they were too blah in texture. Next time, and there will be a next time, I will just pulse a few times. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with TVP. :)
Mmm.. I love it...! Great channel. ❤
Thank you 😋
OMG, it’s in the middle of the night and silly me had to watch this - and of course, now I’m soooooo hungry, it looks soooooo yummy! I do mine in the oven too. I found a fantastic thick aluminum pan with individual meatball holes on aliexpress, lets the meatballs stay perfectly round, as if deep fried! Loooove it! 😊👏💚🌱🍀✅
THIS WOMAN IS A GENIUS.
Merci 🥰
I've made this three times now and this is a legit gift to humanity. Love your cat too :)
Hi Chef, I made these a couple of days ago and thye wife & I both agree - - - D E L I C I O U S 😁😁😁 delicioso. Plus, they refridgerate and reheat well. Next, we'll freeze the remaining and use them later in another recipie. Thank You for sharing your delicioso vegan recipies and expanding our menue options. Hope all is well with you & your family. Cheers!
Just discovered your channel I love everything you’ve done so far. I cannot wait to try these meatless meatballs they look absolutely wonderful!
Welcome to the family, Gail! 🙂Much love! ❤️🥰
I like the cat at the window at the bigining and at the end!
Merci! 😘
Wow. Good idea! Thank you!

You have such beautiful flowers on Your dress, Jana. I'll continue watching it later. Thank You very much.
Your recipes are great and your sweet little feline friend is lovely. Thanks Jana 🥰
My pleasure 😊
😍Thank you!
You're welcome 😊
Thanks, Jana; I've got to make these; I didn't know they'd be that easy. I've been buying the Gardein meatballs, but I'll bet these are better. I haven't had a meatball grinder in eons; looking forward to a vegan version.
Have fun! :)
Thank you for your recipes! I love your enthusiasm and of course your cat too!
This looks SO good and never heard anyone explain how to cook it WITHOUT rehydrating. Love that! Wait a minute... I’m thinking if we can make meatballs this way, I’m guessing we can make hamburgers too yes? Got any TVP hamburger recipes here already?
I was thinking the same
Yes, absolutely! This recipe is perfect for hamburger patties :)
Thx for sharing my lovely 🤗
My pleasure 😊
I have shared this recipe with so many cooks and they always say thank you for sharing 😊
We call this cuisine as "Kofta". This ball can be made with any vegetable, dairy or meat. Bind it with any kind of flour such as lentils or all purpose flour, add few spices such as chilli, coriander, onion, garlic, ginger etc and salt. Roll them into balls and keep in the refridgerator for a while and deep fry them. Throw them into tomato, onion and spicy gravy and enjoy as a side dish with rice or flatbread.
Love the recipe and the video. Bonus points for the cat. 😅😸. Edit: clarity
He makes a special appearance at the end of the video too! 😘
Looks amazing, and no hard to find ingredients like methylcellulose! Thank you!
Im definitely cooking this very soon. Yum.
Please do!
love it😍😁!
Thanks 😁
Thank you dear ❤
Looks fantastic. Love meatless meatballs Thank you for another great recipe.
Thank you so much Olga ❤️
This is delicious! Today I will make patties using seasonings for sausages. Thank you so much for your recipes and especially the tips explaining things of the ingredients, such as the dust of TVP.
Sounds great!
Firstly, JayJay is adorable 🥰
I made these non meat balls tonight. After a full day at work! They are amazing. I finished dinner then put the rest in the refrigerator. I keep thinking about going back for more. Thank you for this recipe Jana.
Great job!
I can not wait to make this. Thank you for this video
I'll be making these for some holiday appetizers! Thanks so much
You are not going to regret it :)
I enjoy that cat in the window!!!!!!
Fantastic recipe chef 👍👌👏. Thank you for your effort 🙏🌞🌹😎
My pleasure 😊
Thank you these look delicious. I’m new to vegan and not heard of tvp. I will check it out
You're welcome!!
Awwwwwwwww kitty purrrrrrrrrrrr I’m in looooove 😄🥰
Thanks Chef😍 I got tvp and never used it yet
Let me know! 😘❤️
OMGosh what a happy catty! He's beautiful. And THANK YOU so much Chef Jana! I have been missing Konigsberger Klopse so much. (meatballs in a lemon and caper sauce traditionally served with plain boiled potatoes) I simply have to adapt this recipe if I can find Vital wheat gluten in South Africa! Or could I use a little high gluten bread flour as a binder?
You can try oatmeal flour and hydrated ground flaxseeds, add a bit more water to bind it if necessary :)
@@ChefJana thank you xx
Thanks again Jana ❤
... A very small amount of gravy master/kitchen bouquet will add a dark color to any preparation... My grandmother's meatballs always had pieces of garlic and it's nice to bite into them on a Sunday afternoon… Very nice recipe thank you Jana... God is good...😎
Thanks for the tips!
I love your show and I would love using this recipe as my go-to meatball recipe. They were delicious, but I don't know what I did wrong when I fried them because they did not stay together. The outside was crisp but they fell apart. I had added an extra tablespoon of wheat gluten too when I formed them. The TVP I used were cubes so I chopped them into small pieces to start. I just don't know what went wrong. They meatballs were so tastie too. I ended up using them as crumbles on top of the spaghetti. ...so good. Help!
A couple things might have gone wrong; have you processed it? It is very important to process it so everything glues together. Also, because you have used chunks instead of fine curls, it might have not cooked long enough, resulting in a loose dough.
@@ChefJana Thank you so much. I did process it and fried it. I bet i didn't cook it long enough. I'll give it another try with fine curls too.
Big up the TVP and yourself chef. Top notch cookery. Thanks
Thank you 😊
Amazingly I have all these ingredients!! Thanks Jana ♥️
You're so welcome!
Jana those meatballs look Delicious 😋😋
"Jesus, take the wheel", hahahaha, love this.
I just love that I'm sitting there at windowsill staring at my owner thinking where's mah food
In the video, you let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes before you add it in the food processor but the recipe says áfter it is processed. I decided to go with the recipe and for some (or this) reason the balls were too soggy.
Me too. (I don't see that she has answered any questions here lately, so guess we're on our own). However, I did let it rest 15 mins before processing and just put it through food processor and it's still pretty soggy. Looks like they may hold together, but I'm going to let it rest another 15 mins and hope the gluten builds a little more before shaping balls. I'll update when I'm done. How did yours turn out?
Yes, that was a typo on the text but at the end, won’t make much difference, the important thing is for the tough to rest for that time. What will determine if your meatballs are more moist or dry is the cooked tvp, , (like I’ve showed in the video) once they are cooked, they must have absorbed all the broth, like I’ve showed when I turned off the heat and transferred to the glass bowl. If you see any remaining liquid, put them back in the skillet and stir until all the liquid is gone. If not, they could turn out soggy.
You are never alone 😉
@@ChefJana oké thank you, next time I will let them cook longer. They were still oké, I’m gonna try again.
Hi Jana. I almost never rehydrate my TVP and it is always good. I loved your recipe and I am going ro try it. Abraços brasileiros.
Beijo beijo!
Great video!
Thanks!
Looks delicious🌴
Thank you 😋
🤩 It will become a «classique» in my house!
Yes!!! 😀❤️
I made it for our Italian Friday Night! It was delicious!
Wow. Adorei essa receita, vou tentar fazer com certeza. S2
Depois me diz, Mikel! 😘
thanks . And what a lovely and sweet cat ♥
Trying it today!
If trying to be gluten free, you can add GF Oat Flour instead of Vital Wheat Gluten. Same binding characteristics.
Fantastic recipe.
Thank you! 😘
Nice!!
Thanks!
Yummy 😋 can eat everyday will share
Hope you enjoy!
this looks so good got to try itttt btw your cat it's so cuteeeee
I just found out what MSG is. I do not eat this but here is my alternative if you don't already know this recipe and for your subscribers who might be interested. I use this chickenless powder in so many recipes and it enhances all the flavors. Here is a link to the recipe. I substitute some of the herbs I don't like for others: www.thelemonapron.com/faux-chicken-bouillon-powder/
Delicious! Thank you for sharing. Unable to find TVP locally or Vital Gkuten so will have to order off-island.
lovely cat😘😘😘😘
Jay Jay says thank you 🐱❤️
You make me want to eat that now 😋
This looks gorgeous - and that's coming from someone from an Italian family!! My question is....what can we use instead of soy? Thank you for your fabulous recipes and for being such a bright spot on YT!!
This looks so good!!! I have used cooked green lentils in the past.
You can try Gardein or any other vegan mince beef, works with them all ;)
Hi! I just made them and they tasted great! They sadly fell apart a bunch, do you have any suggestions for holding them together more? Should I add more vital wheat gluten? Thank you very much for all of your great recipes!
Aw love your kitty 😺 meatballs look scrumptious too!
Thank you, Ellen 😋
Love it, Jana! Can you kindly suggest a substitute for the vital wheat gluten for those of us with autoimmunity? Thank you so much for all your wonderful content!! 🙏🏼
You can try oatmeal flour, then add soaked chia seeds or soaked flaxseeds, add the oatmeal flour, the chia or flaxseed and let it test for 20 minutes, just like the recipe asked for. It might need a few teaspoons of water, you’ll be the judge of that. 😉❤️
@@ChefJana Thank you so much!!! You are amazing, and I really appreciate you taking the time not only to teach us all, but to provide alternative ingredients ❤️
@@ChefJana Thank you for the tip! I was thinking oat flour would be a good alternative but with the chia mix, it will probably help even more to bind everything together. I can't wait to try this recipe now! I will let you know how it works! You deserve so much more subscribers! Your recipes are fabulous and you provide so many tips! It makes all the difference when you try to go meatless.
@@ChefJana How much chia seeds?
its in the oven now!!!! so excited!!!!
So they are amazing! and with the tomato sauce incredible!!!! Thank you so much for this recipe!!!!!!!!
Lovely kitty
Yum 🤤🤤🤤 that looks so good
Thank you 😋
niceeee!!!!can i use normal flour instead of gluten flour?
You can try oatmeal flour and hydrated ground flaxseeds, add a bit more water to bind if necessary :)
Really fabulous 🧚♀️they look like Planet Mars, or like meteorites 🎈very red🍅
Hi Chef Jana. This looks like such an amazing recipe. I can’t wait to try it. I was just wondering if you can recommend a great brand of Passata sauce? Thank you 😺
Hi there! I have only one brand available here where I live so I kind of gave no choice but luckily it’s a good one! 😀 you choose the one that’s has only tomatoes in the ingredients. Sometimes they put salt and water but others than that, it shouldn’t have any other ingredient in it. 😉
@@ChefJana thank you so much! You’re amazing 💜
Meatballs look nice and I will definitely be trying them! :) but the sauce, well, I am Italian and we (my family) never make red sauce like that, but each to their own, there are multiple roads to Rome.
what can i use instead of vital wheat gluten flour? maybe corn starch or something like bread crumbs?
Can i make kebabs with skewers (with the meatball mix) and grill them on the barbeque instead?
💖
Absolutely delicious!!
Thank you 😋
Can the Soy curls be replaced with some other ingredient. I'm allergic to soy. Your recipe looks fabulous.
lol , you're cat is like : '' Who she's talking to ?!? , Am Right Here !!! ''
😂❤️
