In a bowl, mix the seitan flour, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, cumin, paprika, salt, pepper, sugar, and onion powder well. In a second bowl, mix the oil, mustard, soy sauce, tomato paste, and water (preferably with a hand mixer). Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and knead everything together well. Determine the total weight and divide into 3, 4, or 5 portions (depending on the desired size or weight). Flatten each portion into a 10 cm or 12 cm cookie ring or something similar and fry in a pan with a little rapeseed oil for 3 to 5 minutes on each side, then drain briefly on kitchen paper. Serve with burger buns, toast, bread as a burger, sandwich, or whatever you like. You can also shape it into sausage links or just let your imagination run wild.
