Ingredients
In a large bowl, mix:
1 C fresh whole wheat Bread crumbs
1/3 C Water
In a large, lightly oiled or non-stick skillet, steam-fry:
2 C Onion, minced (2 large onions)
2 large Garlic cloves, minced
Cook onions until they are very soft and beginning to brown. Add the onions to the breadcrumbs along with:
1 ½ lbs firm or medium-firm regular Tofu, thawed, squeezed, and crumbled
¼ C Soy sauce
½ Tbs Tomato paste
½ tsp EACH dried basil, sage, and oregano
¼ tsp dried thyme
¼ tsp dried savory
Pepper to taste
Mix well and allow the mixture to cool (you can speed this up by placing it in the freezer for a few minutes). Preheat the oven to 350° F. When the mixture is cool, add 1/3 cup whole wheat flour.
Mix well and pat the mixture into a lightly-greased or non-stick, 9-inch round cake or pie pan. If you like, spread the top with a thin layer of ketchup. Bake for 30 minutes, then let sit for 10-15 minutes before cutting into wedges. Serves 6.
