Ingredients
  

  • ½ block tempeh
  • 1 red pepper
  • 1 red onion
  • 1 Tbsp teriyaki sauce
  • 1 Tbsp Kikkoman soy sauce
  • 1 tsp rice vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 Tbsp water
  • 1 Tbsp sesame seeds

Method
 

  1. Cut the tempeh into small cubes, the pepper into bite-sized pieces, the onion into thin wedges.
  2. Scatter these into a baking dish or an air fryer basket.
  3. In a small bowl, mix the sesame oil, teriyaki sauce, vinegar, water and soy sauce. Taste and add a pinch of brown sugar if it’s too acidic.
  4. Pour this mixture over the tempeh and the veggies, then toss gently.
  5. Bake in a preheated oven for 25 minutes, at 375F/180C. If you’re using an air fryer, set it to "air fry" for 15 minutes at 180C.
  6. Serve with the sesame seeds.
