    How to Prepare Enlightened Soy Curls Al Pastor [Vegan]

    1. Simmer the soy curls, water, broth powder, chiles, and epazote for 10 minutes in a medium saucepan. With a spoon, pick the dried peppers out and set aside, leaving the Soy Curls and broth in the pan to cool.
    2. When cool enough to handle, remove the stems and seeds from the chiles. In a blender, combine the chiles with all of the marinade ingredients. Add the blended marinade to the saucepan with the soy curls. Refrigerate for an hour.
    3. Heat up a cast-iron skillet and add the oil. Sauté the onion and garlic for a couple of minutes and then add the soy curls with the marinade and the remaining pineapple. Sauté until the soy curls start to brown, about 15 minutes. Serve on the corn tortillas with the minced onion, cilantro, and lime juice to taste.
