5 ea. (750g–1kg) large, hard boiling potatoes
20 ml soy sauce or yeast extract
20 ml margarine or rapeseed oil
Corn flour or breading mixture
Any of the following optional ingredients
Salt or celery salt
Bear's garlic or garlic
Herbs, e.g. paprika, thyme, rosemary, cumin, oregano and savory
Onions
Taco seasoning mix (e.g. corn flour, salt, chili, onion, garlic, paprika, sodium glutamate)
1–3 g chili seasoning mix (e.g. chilies, orange zest, sesame, paprika, celery, and mustard)
1–5 g vegetable stock
Unrefined sugar (or sugar not refined using the char method)
Pepper
10 ml vinegar

Boil potatoes until they are not quite done. If the potatoes are not completely done the resulting substance may be sliceable, although it will be easy to spread anyway.
Mash the potatoes, then stir in the soy sauce.
Mix in some margarine and cornflour. The substance should take on the consistency of peanut butter but have more the color of cheese than anything else.
Mix in any of the optional additions to add flavor to the mixture.
Press the substance into a small, round form, to give it the form of a cheddar cheese. Unmold and serve.
