Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • One 8-ounce package tempeh, any variety
  • 1/4 cup vegan mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons rice milk
  • 1 tablespoon prepared horseradish or 1 teaspoon wasabi, or to taste
  • 2 to 3 teaspoons lemon or lime juice
  • 1/4 cup minced fresh dill

Method

  • Heat the oil and soy sauce in a wide skillet.
  • Add the tempeh, stirring quickly to coat.
  • Saute over medium-high heat, stirring gently and frequently, until golden and crisp, about 7 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine the mayonnaise, rice milk, and horseradish and lemon juice to taste in a small serving bowl and whisk until smooth.
  • Stir in the dill.
  • When the fries are done, arrange them on a platter.
  • Serve at once, passing around the sauce.
  • This is a good addition to lighter Asian-style noodle dishes, such as Pineapple Coconut Noodles (page 114), Pad Thai (page 116), Singapore-Style Yellow Curry Rice Noodles with Tofu (page 118), Soba Noodles with Green Beans and Almonds (page 127), or Coconut-Curry Bean Thread Noodles (page 115).
  • Tempeh fries are also good for boosting the protein content of meals in which salad is the main event.
  • Try these with Warm Potato and Black Bean Salad with Red Peppers and Artichokes (page 159), Gado Gado (page 160), or Hoison-Flavored Cold Asian Noodles with Crisp Vegetables (page 168).
