Where do you get seitan in uk ?

I'm not sure where you'd purchase seitan in the UK, but I live in the US and don't purchase it, I prefer to make it at home because it's easy, cheap and I control what goes into it.

I buy Vital Wheat Gluten flour from amazon.com and mix 2 cups of the gluten with two cups of water, some garlic and onion powder and dried thyme. I simmer (AND I MEAN SIMMER) it for about an hour in 6 cups of vegetable stock and soy sauce, then slice and freeze.

Guaca-Mango Bagel
vegan, makes one bagel

1 bagel, sliced and toasted (the more grains the better)

1/2 avocado, diced
1/2 lemon, squeezed
3-5 dashes cayenne
3-5 dashes fine black pepper
pinch of truffle salt (or basic fine salt)
1 tsp grape seed, avocado or olive oil (optional)

1 small champagne mango, diced (about 1 cup)
1 tsp maple syrup
1-2 Tbsp vegan tofu cream cheese (*or try some cashew cheese for a healthier whole food substitute!)
fine pepper/salt to taste

garnish, remaining lemon half - sliced

To Make:

1. Slice the avocado and mango. Add the avocado to a small bowl with the pepper, cayenne, squeezed lemon juice, oil and salt. Toss and slightly mash with fork. Optional add-in's could include diced jalapeno or chopped cilantro for even more "guacamole" flavor. In a separate small bowl, toss the mango in a bit of maple syrup and salt/pepper as desired. Set both aside.

2. Slice and toast you bagel - or bread - any bread item will work, but I prefer something hearty to hold up to the heavy avocado and plentiful mango cubes. Slather the cream cheese on one side of the bagel. Add a pinch of salt and pepper. I like to slightly salt my cream cheese since I find the tofu cream cheese can be slightly under-salted for my tastes - especially when I pair it with something as sweet as fruit.

3. Next, slather the avocado on the naked side of bagel. Squeeze some fresh lemon juice over top both sides. Add another drizzle of your favorite healthy oil if you'd like (I find this help to soften the bagel up a bit when combined with the acid of the lemon. Serve with fresh lemon slices!
