Tempeh is a fermented soy-based protein which originated from the Indonesian island of Java. Its nutty flavour and high plant-based protein content make it an excellent meat substitute. Try it in your sautés!

2 tbsp tamari
1 tbsp mirin (or rice vinegar)
½ tbsp sambal oelek

2 tsp fresh ginger
Some vegetable oil for frying
