Categories     Tempeh

Time 40m

Yield 18-20 strips

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (8 -10 ounce) package tempeh
2 garlic cloves, minced (or put through press)
2 onions, slices
2 bay leaves
4 thin slices ginger
1 whole clove
1/4 teaspoon chipotle pepper, pureed (or a few drops liquid smoke)
2 tablespoons molasses
1 1/2 teaspoons tomato paste
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/4 cup soy sauce (thin, not thick)

Steps:

  • Slice the tempeh crosswise into thin strips.
  • Combine the remaining ingredients in a small skillet. Bring to a boil and add the tempeh. Simmer slowly, covered, for 15 minutes. Remove the lid, and continue cooking until all liquid has been absorbed.
  • At this point the tempeh will begin to fry in the oil. Cook until nicely glazed and browned, about 5 minutes.
  • Enjoy!
