Easy Baked Tempeh

Recipe By :=20
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Digest Apr95

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 pound Tempeh
16 ounces Tomato sauce — Mcdougall
1/4 cup Onion — chopped fine
1/4 cup Cider vinegar
1/4 cup Soy sauce — low sodium
1/2 teaspoon Curry powder
1/4 teaspoon Ground ginger

Preparation Time: 0:50 Tempeh is a compact patty made by fermenting cooked
hulled soybeans with a beneficial mold that binds the beans together. Other
legumes, such as peas and lentils, and also grains, such as rice, wheat, and
barley — alone or in various combinations — are sometimes added. Because it
has a dense, solid consistency, it is often used to replace meat in various
dishes and on sandwiches. Like tofu, it is high in fat and protein. You will
find tempeh in the refrigerated or frozen food sections of your natural food
store. Refrigerated, it lasts a week, and frozen, it lasts indefinately.
Freezing does not change its texture appreciably.

Cut the tempeh into bite-sized pieces and set aside. Preheat the oven to 350
degrees. Combine the remaining ingredients in a small saucepan and simmer over
low heat until the sauce thickens slightly, about 10 minutes. Spoon a thin
layer of sauce on the bottom of a 2 – quart baking dish. Add the tempeh pieces
and cover with the remaining sauce. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes.
