What is Soy sauce sautéed tempeh?
Soy sauce sautéed tempeh is made by cooking tempeh with soy sauce. Tempeh originated in Indonesia, where whole soybeans are fermented and pressed into a firm cake. Its texture is denser and more pleasantly grainy than tofu, making it easy to slice or cube for cooking.
Sautéing gives it browned edges and a savoury, salty coating. In Indonesia it can be served with rice and vegetables; elsewhere, it also works well in grain bowls, salads or wraps. It is a filling plant-based source of protein and fibre, with 20.5 g of protein per 100 g. Use a little oil and add fresh vegetables if you’d like a lighter meal.
