I got this recipe from . Personally I think I'd like these meatballs a tad spicier. I used a nut oil instead of canola to fry the onion and garlic. I then used olive oil to fry the meatballs.

Ingredients:

8 ounces by weight of dry textured vegetable protein

1 3/4 cups boiling water

1 small onion, diced

2 tablespoons canola oil

1 teaspoon minced garlic

1/2 teaspoon chili powder

1/2 teaspoon cilantro

salt and pepper

1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

1 tablespoon tamari soy sauce

1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

1/2 cup whole wheat flour

1 tablespoon oil (for frying the onion and garlic)

1/4 cup oil (to fry the meatballs)

Directions:

1. Boil your water and add it to the TVP and let it rehydrate for at least 10 minutes.
2. Saute the onion and garlic in the 1 tbsp oil. Add spices and mix well.
3. Add to the TVP mixture. Add in the flour.
4. Mold into 1 inch size meatballs. Press them together hard to keep them from crumbling.
5. Fry in the 1/4 oil turning meatballs around to cook all sides until crispy and golden brown.
6. Yields about 3 dozen.
7. Bon Appetit!
