Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a casserole dish. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the vegetarian beef until evenly brown. Remove vegetarian beef from skillet, reserving juices, and set aside. Mix in the olive oil, and saute the green pepper, parsley,onion, carrot, and celery until tender. Return vegetarian beef to the skillet, and season with paprika, salt, black pepper, red pepper, cinnamon, and cloves. Stir in the water and red wine until heated through. Dissolve the vegetarian beef bouillon cube into the mixture. Remove skillet from heat, and mix in the half-and-half. Layer the bottom of the prepared casserole dish with enough potato slices to cover. Place the vegetarian beef and vegetable mixture over the potatoes, and top with remaining potatoes. Cook, covered, 45 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the potatoes are tender.Enjoy! |
