Craving a quick weeknight winner with fakeaway flavours?
Enter the Original Tempeh with a glorious honey chilli glaze. This one is perfect for when you need a tasty meal but don’t want to spend ages in the kitchen. Tearing the tempeh into small chunks, instead of chopping, gives it gnarly edges and it crisps up beautifully during cooking, thanks to its unique texture as it’s made with whole soybeans. The flavour hungry tempeh soaks up the sticky honey, chilli glaze for the perfect taste in every bite. Paired with crunchy fresh veg, to further up the fibre intake, and finished with a toasted sesame and spring onion crunch. An umami powerhouse of a recipe.
