Ingredients

  • 1 pack 200g pre-cooked and marinated Spring tempeh cubes
  • 1 tbsp. cornstarch
  • 2 ½ tbsp. vegetable oil
  • 1 green onion, sliced
  • 1 clove garlic, chopped
  • ½ red bell pepper, diced
  • ½ tsp. ground ginger

    • Marinade

  • 1/4 cup vegetable stock

  • 2 tbsp. sodium-reduced soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp. ketchup

PREPARATION :

Break up the tempeh cubes with your hands, place them in a saucepan, cover with water and boil for 10 minutes. Drain. Put the tempeh cubes in the cornstarch and mix. In a frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Pour in the tempeh cubes and fry them for a few minutes or until they are golden brown on each surface. Set aside.

In the same pan, add a little bit of vegetable oil and sauté the garlic, green onion and red bell pepper for 2 minutes. In another bowl, combine all the remaining sauce ingredients and add them to the pan with the golden tempeh cubes. Stir to coat with the sauce. Serve with rice and stir-fried vegetables.
