Orange tempeh
*Plus 1 hour of marinating
This is a very easy recipe that, thanks to the variety of its ingredients, results in an extremely tasty dish full of flavor.
Orange tempeh is a dish with a slightly sweet, slightly citrusy and slightly spicy flavor, the latter thanks to the spices added during its preparation. The end result is a stew that gives off an intense, exotic aroma, with a thick-textured sauce and a delicious, zesty flavor.
This sauce is also ideal with tofu and seitan dishes, so you can swap them in for the tempeh if you don't have any on hand.
In terms of nutrition, this dish is rich in protein, fiber, beta-carotene, flavonoids, oxalic acid, B vitamins (B2, B3 and B9, or folic acid), aluminum, sulfur, boron, calcium, cobalt, copper, chromium, curcumin, phosphorus, iron, magnesium, manganese, potassium, silicon and zinc.

- Step 1In a bowl, mix the soy sauce, the orange juice, the grated rind, the vinegar, the salt, the syrup, the chopped garlic and the spices. Once mixed, we put it in a bowl and add the tempeh cut into cubes. Let marinate for 1 hour.
- Step 2Separate the tempeh from the sauce and cook it without oil in a pan for 5 minutes, adding a little sauce, just enough so that it does not stick.
- Step 3On a plate, we remove the arrowroot flour and add the water, stirring it to dissolve. Once the flour is dissolved, mix it with the rest of the sauce and heat it in a pan, stirring for a couple of minutes, until you get a semi-thick texture.
- Step 4We pass the tempeh to a plate, add the sauce on top, and serve with sprinkled sesame seeds, if desired.
