Embark on a culinary journey with our delectable Teriyaki Tempeh, a symphony of flavors and textures that will tantalize your taste buds. This versatile plant-based protein takes center stage, marinated in a luscious blend of soy sauce, mirin, sake, and brown sugar, infusing it with a savory-sweet glaze. Pan-fried to perfection, the tempeh boasts a crispy exterior and a tender, succulent interior that soaks up the irresistible teriyaki sauce. Accompanying this main attraction are two equally enticing recipes: a refreshing Asian slaw, brimming with vibrant vegetables tossed in a tangy dressing, and a fluffy coconut rice, cooked to perfection and infused with aromatic jasmine essence. These accompaniments provide a harmonious balance, adding freshness, texture, and a subtle sweetness to complement the savory tempeh.
Let's cook with our recipes!
TERIYAKI TEMPEH
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Spray the inside and lid of a cast-iron Dutch oven with canola oil or wipe with peanut oil.
- Rinse the rice in a strainer under cold water until the water runs clear. Tip the rice into the pot, add 1 cup plus 1 tablespoon water, and stir to make an even layer.
- Sprinkle the tempeh with the 5-spice powder and arrange on top of the rice.
- In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, and peanuts to make a teriyaki sauce. Spoon half the mixture over the tempeh.
- Add the cabbage, carrots, mushrooms, and water chestnuts in layers. Pour the rest of the sauce over all.
- Cover and bake for 45 minutes, or until 3 minutes after the aroma of a fully cooked meal escapes the oven. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- First, make the dipping sauce. Mix all the ingredients except for the lime wedges, adding a splash of water to loosen if it is too thick. Season and set aside. Can be made up to a day in advance and kept in the fridge.
- Cut the tempeh into 16 slices. Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Fry the slices of tempeh for around 3 mins each side. Add the teriyaki sauce to the pan, and turn the slices to coat them. Let it bubble away for 1-2 mins - you're looking for the tempeh to be well covered and sticky.
- Tip the sesame seeds into a cup. Take the sticky slices of tempeh and push a wooden skewer into each (don't push them down too far). Dip one end of the tempeh into the sesame seeds, then transfer to a serving platter with the dipping sauce in a bowl and the lime wedges on the side.

Tips:
- Choose the right tempeh: Look for tempeh that is firm and has a slightly nutty flavor. Avoid tempeh that is too soft or has a sour smell.
- Press the tempeh: Pressing the tempeh helps to remove excess moisture and makes it easier to absorb the marinade.
- Marinate the tempeh: Marinating the tempeh in a flavorful mixture of soy sauce, mirin, sake, and brown sugar helps to add flavor and depth to the dish.
- Cook the tempeh: Tempeh can be cooked in a variety of ways, including grilling, baking, frying, and steaming. Be sure to cook the tempeh until it is heated through and slightly browned.
- Serve the tempeh: Teriyaki tempeh can be served as a main course or as an appetizer. It can also be used as a topping for salads, rice bowls, or noodles.
