vegetarianRecipe: Fried Tempeh

Tempeh, a cake of fermented soybeans, is much tastier than it sounds.

Yield 2-4 servings
Time 10 minutes
Tools
  • saucepan
  • spatula
Ingredients
  • several T olive, peanut, sesame, or canola oil
  • 1 package (8 or 10 oz) tempeh, cut into ½ inch strips
  • 2 T soy sauce
Directions Heat the oil over medium-high heat. When hot, add tempeh and fry until golden, about 3-4 minutes. Drizzle with half of the soy sauce, turn and repeat.

Serve hot. 

Notes This is my favorite way to prepare tempeh. The result is a pile of crunchy sticks can be eaten plain for a snack, and that also taste great with peanut sauce or barbecue sauce.
