1.
Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F, gas mark 4) and line a 20cm square tin (8 inch) with baking parchment paper
-
2.
In the meantime make the glaze for your vegan 'ribs' by heating a 2 tbsp oil in a pan over a medium-low heat
-
3.
Add the smashed garlic and fry for 4-5 minutes
-
4.
Dilute the tomato puree with the 100ml of water and whisk in the sugar, liquid smoke, soy sauce, mustard powder, tamarind past and Tabasco
-
5.
Add to the pan with the garlic and bring to the boil , stir well and turn down to a low heat and simmer until the sugar is dissolved
-
6.
Once you have your glaze set aside and start making the 'ribs'
-
7.
Add all of the wet ingredients in a high speed blender and blitz for around 30 seconds
-
8.
Place the dry ingredients into a large bowl and stir
-
9.
Add the wet ingredients from the blender to the bowl of dry ingredients and combine well until fully incorporated
-
10.
Lightly knead for 5 minutes to activate the gluten, then stretch to fill the baking tray
-
11.
Take a sharp knife and score the dough into 12 equal pieces (6 x 2) - you don't need to cut them all the way through.
-
12.
Brush the top with a little of the glaze and lightly cover with foil
-
13.
Bake for around 30-35 minutes until springy to touch
-
14.
Remove from the over and set aside for a few minutes
-
15.
Turn on the grill and oil the rack lightly to prevent sticking
-
16.
Remove the seitan 'ribs' from the baking tray and brush with more of the glaze on the top and place in under the grill (or use a griddle pan)

17.
Once the tops start to caramelise, turn over and brush with more glaze and place back under the grill
