I'm originally from Philly (the city, not the burbs)... this is authentic
EEquipment needed:
1 large frying, saute pan or griddle.
1 cutting board
1 really heavy duty stainless steel spatula
1 french knife for slicing onions and mushrooms, or an asian cleaver
Measure | Ingredients |
1/4 cup 1/2 of | saute oil (canola, safflower, light olive) large white onion, sliced very thin |
1/2 cup | Italian cherry peppers, sliced or pepperoncini |
2 cups | Frozen vegan crumbles or refrigerated Lightlife crumbles |
1/4 cup | mayonnaise |
1 each | large fresh french baguette, soft |
to taste | sliced button mushrooms |
to taste | marinara sauce, not necessary for authenticity |
makes 2 very large Philly sandwiches | |
-or- 3 medium sized sandwiches | |
Heat up your saute pan with the oil and throw in your onions, peppers, mushrooms and saute over very high heat until brown, add the vegan crumbles and saute together to blend the flavors until they are all browned and grilled, turn the heat onto low and add the mayo (in philly they use chez whiz, mayo is the best substitute i've come across to get the texture and taste). (you can coat your roll with marinara if thats how you like it)
