BBQ Tempeh | Easy, Lazy, and Healthy Recipe

Here's an easy and lazy recipe for BBQ Tempeh ready in about 15 minutes. This is perfect for your busiest days when you want food fast. I use bottled BBQ sauce as a short cut, but you're welcome to make yours from scratch. If you're new to cooking tempeh, this is a really easy recipe to get started with. If you use the right sauce, this recipe is vegetarian and vegan. I also included a couple quick suggestions for easy sides to keep your meal stress-free. Hope this video is helpful for you!

NOTE: You only need to marinate the tempeh 5-10 minutes. So opt for 5 if you want dinner done closer to 15 minutes.

Tofu/tempeh, butternut squash and dates tagine

I have adapted a recipe from Sainsbury's online magazine replacing the lamb with pieces of marinated and baked tofu and tempeh.

Ingredients:

1 large onion, sliced into thin half moons

3 garlic cloves, minced

1 Tbsp ras el hanout (or tagine) spice mix

3 cups cubed butternut squash and/or cubed sweet potato

100 g pitted dates, halved

1 cinnamon stick

1 x 400g tin chopped tomatoes

500 ml hot vegetable stock

1 x 400g tin or carton chickpeas, drained

3 cups cubed marinated baked tofu/tempeh

Some chopped coriander to serve

Cashew sour cream to serve (optional)

Tofu/tempeh marinade:

2-3 Tbsp soy sauce

1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar

1 tsp onion powder

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp smoked paprika powder

(Mix marinade ingredients in a glass box or bowl add diced tofu/tempeh, coat the pieces and leave to marinate in the fridge overnight.)

Method:

Dry saute the onions for 5-7 minutes adding some stock a table spoon at a time if needed until slightly browned. Then add garlic, fry for another minute, then add the spices and fry for another minute until fragrant.

Add the rest of the ingredients except the tofu/tempeh and if using a normal pot, get to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 30 minutes. If using a pressure cooker pot like I did, get the pot to pressure and then cook for 10 minutes under pressure. At the end, stir in the tofu/tempeh pieces, coriander and serve. Add some sour cream to each individual plate if using. Enjoy!

Lots of vegan love,

Inga

Maple Tempeh with Lime Couscous Salad & Minty Plums

The flavors in this dish may seem adventurous to some, with sweet maple, fresh lime, and bright mint, but we can assure you that they come together for a delicious finish. The tempeh gets a sweet and savory marinade before crisping up in a skillet. Be sure to keep an eye on the tempeh, the sugars could caramelize quickly- they’re ready when there’s a golden brown coating on each piece. The lime couscous is seriously flavorful, and if you love lime, add a little of the zest to the salad- we won’t tell.
