In recent months we have seen that more and more we have regular readers, and followers, who choose to eat vegetarian or vegan. With that in mind I am passing on this recipe suggestion from Martine at Low Carb Vegan Blog.
Ingredients:
Serves 2-3
300-400 gram swede/rutabaga or cauliflower, chopped a few tablespoons of unsweetened plant milk or cooking cream
salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons oil, separated
1 leek, in half rings (you can substitute onion or spring onion)
250 gram button mushrooms, sliced
300 gram raw escarole or lettuce (or boiled kale), shredded
200 gram tempeh, cubed small
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 tablespoon soy sauce
Method:
1. Bring water to a boil in a pot and cook the rutabaga until very tender, about 10-15 minutes. Mash into a puree using a potato masher, large fork or food processor. Add a few tablespoons of plant milk or cooking cream to make it nicely smooth. Add salt and pepper to taste.
2. In the mean time, sauté the leek and mushrooms in the first tablespoon of oil until slightly browned and tender. Mix the cooked vegetables into the mash and also mix in the raw escarole or lettuce so they wilt a little. Keep everything warm in very low heat while you prepare the tempeh.
3. Heat the second tablespoon of oil and fry the tempeh until nicely browned. Mix in the soy sauce and smoked paprika and cook for one minute more.
4. Scoop the mash-pot onto plates and sprinkle with the tempeh.

ReplyDeleteDon't know what tempeh is... But we do not eat vegan etc.
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna have to try rutabaga and tempeh one of these days.
ReplyDeleteI'll try this with cauliflower. I love tempeh because, unlike tofu, it actually as a distinct taste. Thanks for sharing this, Jan.

Yum.

It's usually found in the refrigerated section of most health food stores and in the natural foods aisle of well-stocked grocery stores. Look for it next to the tofu. You will find it in different flavors and with the addition of various grains.
It will not be to everyone's liking, and some may not wish to use it ... but we like to bring a variety of recipe ideas to the blog.
