Remix: Anne’s South Chinese Tempeh & Purple Potato Bowl

Directions

Bring a medium pot of water to a rolling boil. Add the tempeh and boil for approximately 10 minutes to remove the bitterness.

Remove from the water, and place the tempeh on paper towels to drain and cool. Press a layer of paper towels onto the top to help squeeze as much moisture out as possible. Once cooled, break the tempeh into crumbles resembling ground meat.

Heat 2 tablespoons of the sesame oil in a sauté pan and add the tempeh. Cook over high heat for 5 to 6 minutes until it starts to brown and crisp up nicely.

Add the remaining toasted sesame oil, diced purple potato, carrots, garlic, and ginger, and stir well until the potato is soft (about 8 to 9 minutes). Add the baby bok choy and toss for 1 minute. Season with tamari or soy sauce.

Remove from heat and stir in the green onion. Divide into 4 servings and plate on top of steamed brown rice. Garnish with the sesame seeds, rice wine vinegar, and additional toasted sesame oil (to taste).
