Out of curiosity, what's behind the barrier to trying meat substitutes?
From another very fussy vegan (no fruit; very specific about veg; nothing remotely salad-like; nothing raw) all things mock-meat are the stuff of dreams :)
If you've got a Polish shop anywhere nearby, I'd recommend trying to pick up some dried soy cutlets (kotlety sojowe) - boil them up with some stock/herbs/spices for c.10 mins, coat them in flour/breadcrumbs and fry them.
In my head I’d rather not have things like quorn or things to replicate meat; but I think that’s at least my best starting point! Thanks.
