Ingredients

  • Peanut Sauce
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 2 red bird’s-eye chilli, deseeded
  • 2 tbsp fresh coriander roots & stems, chopped
  • ¾ cup red shallot or onion, roughly chopped
  • 3 cups water
  • 10 fresh Medjool dates, pitted
  • 200g roasted unsalted peanuts
  • ½ kaffir lime leaf
  • 1½ tbsp vegan fish sauce
  • 1½ tbsp tamari
  • 1 tbsp tamarind puree
  • 3 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • Tempeh & Vegetables
  • 400g tempeh, thinly sliced
  • 16 button mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 broccoli head, cut into small florets
  • 8 cups baby spinach leaves
  • Salt & pepper, to taste

Method


  • Heat an oven to 200°C and line a baking tray with non-stick baking paper.
  • For the peanut sauce, place the garlic, chili, coriander root, onion, water and Medjool dates in a high-speed blender.
  • Pour into a frying pan and bring to the boil, then simmer for 3 mins. Add the roasted peanuts and stir.
  • Remove from the heat, place all ingredients in a high-speed blender and blend to a smooth paste. The consistency should be creamy (add more water if needed). Store in the fridge for up to 4–5 days or freeze.
  • Place the tempeh slices onto the lined baking tray, place in the oven and cook for about 20 mins until golden brown on both sides.
  • While the tempeh is baking, heat a frying pan and dry sauté (without oil) the mushrooms, broccoli and spinach, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Place the cooked tempeh and vegetables on a plate and top with the peanut sauce.
