Teriyaki Tempeh Food

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.

TERIYAKI TEMPEH WITH PEANUT DIP

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.
