- To a large bowl add a heaping cup of textured soy. Cover completely with hot water. Then add in 2 tsp bouillon paste.
- Let it soak for 12 minutes.
- Meanwhile roast your jalapeños in oven at 450 F for 9-12 minutes (flipping half way through) or on stove top until charred on both sides. Add peppers to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap & let sit for 6 minutes.
- Back to the textured soy, strain and then leave in the same bowl. To a separate bowl add soy sauce or tamari, juice of a lime, 1 tbsp brown sugar and 1/2 tsp ground cumin. Mix. Then add to the texture soy. Combine well.
- Heat a large pan over medium heat. Add 3-4 tbsp oil, then once hot add in the texture soy with all the marinade (CAREFUL) when you add it in! Juices may jump!
- Let it cook until all the juices have evaporated.
- It will evaporate after 5 ish minutes. Season well with salt & pepper. Then add in 1/4 (finely diced) onion and 3 cloves (minced) garlic. Mix to combine. Cook for a few more minutes. Allow for it to get charred and deeper in color. You can add an a optional few spoonfuls of salsa and mix again.
- Return to jalapeños. Peel & create a slit to remove seeds. Stuff with vegan cheese. Melt them in an airfryer at 400 for 6 minutes or in the microwave for less then a min.
- Form your tacos. Heat up tortilla, add cheese stuffed jalapeño, soy carne asada, salsa, finely diced onion and cilantro and guacamole!
