How to make the tempeh with apple

  • Cut the tempeh into cubes.
  • Prepare the marinade by mixing all the ingredients well.
  • Place the tempeh in a container, pour in the mixture and leave it to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
  • For the chutney: peel the apples, remove the cores and cut them into cubes. Peel the ginger root thinly and then grate it, or cut it into very small pieces.
  • Place the apple cider vinegar and cane sugar in a pan and heat gently so that the sugar dissolves in the vinegar. Then add the apples, ginger and spices and cook over low heat for approximately 2 hours.
  • Stir the chutney regularly and check that it does not become too sticky; otherwise, add a little water.
  • Once the chutney has reached a fairly thick consistency, you can turn off the heat. Allow the chutney to cool.
  • Then fry the marinated tempeh in a non-stick pan with a splash of sunflower oil. You can add the remaining marinade to the tempeh while it is frying.
  • Serve the roasted tempeh with a fresh salad and apple and ginger chutney. Enjoy your meal!
