Recipe Summary North African Couscous With Tempeh
This is my favorite way to use tempeh. The honey in the marinade allows the tempeh to caramelize beautifully. You can also add diced red pepper for a little extra color. Serve with pita bread and lentil soup to round out the meal. Serve with additional mint as a garnish.Ingredients | South African Malva Pudding With Custard⅓ cup water3 tablespoons soy sauce1 tablespoon honey1 ½ teaspoons curry powder1 ½ teaspoons minced garlic1 teaspoon lemon juice½ teaspoon liquid smoke flavoring1 (8 ounce) package three-grain tempeh, cut into bite-size pieces2 cups vegetable broth¼ cup olive oil, divided2 ½ tablespoons curry powder2 teaspoons salt1 (10 ounce) box plain couscous1 onion, chopped1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas, drained2 tablespoons water2 tablespoons dried mintDirectionsMix 1/3 cup water, soy sauce, honey, 1 1/2 teaspoons curry powder, garlic, lemon juice, and liquid smoke together in a bowl until marinade is smooth; add tempeh and turn to coat evenly.
