Categories     Tempeh

Time 40m

Yield 18-20 strips

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (8 -10 ounce) package tempeh
2 garlic cloves, minced (or put through press)
2 onions, slices
2 bay leaves
4 thin slices ginger
1 whole clove
1/4 teaspoon chipotle pepper, pureed (or a few drops liquid smoke)
2 tablespoons molasses
1 1/2 teaspoons tomato paste
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/4 cup soy sauce (thin, not thick)

Steps:

  • Slice the tempeh crosswise into thin strips.
  • Combine the remaining ingredients in a small skillet. Bring to a boil and add the tempeh. Simmer slowly, covered, for 15 minutes. Remove the lid, and continue cooking until all liquid has been absorbed.
  • At this point the tempeh will begin to fry in the oil. Cook until nicely glazed and browned, about 5 minutes.
  • Enjoy!

This recipe is a great way to make tempeh more flavorful. The molasses marinade adds a nice smoky sweetness to the tempeh. I served the strips with a side of roasted potatoes and a green salad. It was a delicious and easy meal.

I really enjoyed this recipe! The tempeh strips were flavorful and juicy. I served them with a side of roasted vegetables and a tahini sauce. It was a delicious and satisfying meal.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I think it could be improved with a few tweaks. I would add some more spices to the marinade, and I would also cook the tempeh strips for a bit longer.

Overall, this recipe was a bit disappointing. I think I'll try a different tempeh recipe next time.

The tempeh strips were a bit too chewy for my taste. I think I'll try marinating them for a longer period of time next time.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover tempeh. I had some tempeh that was about to go bad, so I decided to try this recipe. I'm glad I did! The tempeh strips turned out great, and they were a hit with my family.

I'm always looking for new ways to cook tempeh, and this recipe definitely fits the bill. The smoky molasses marinade gives the tempeh a really nice flavor, and the strips are nice and crispy. I'll definitely be making this again.
