Recipe

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.
