Ingredients

  • 175g tempeh
  • 340g sweet potato
  • 80g sweetcorn
  • 80g red cabbage
  • 2 tsp jerk seasoning
  • 80g pineapple
  • 15g lime
  • 15g spring onions
  • 80g kidney beans
  • 60g coconut milk
  • fresh thyme

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the sweetcorn and red cabbage, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Cube the sweet potato and roast at 200°C for 25 minutes until soft and caramelised.

  3. 3

    Slice the tempeh and pan-fry for 3-4 minutes per side until golden, then glaze with some of the sauce.

  4. 4

    Rub the protein in jerk seasoning and lime juice. Griddle the pineapple slices for 2 minutes each side until charred, then dice into a quick salsa with spring onion.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the sweetcorn and red cabbage for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the plate: sweet potato first, then the veg and tempeh, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the fresh thyme.

  7. 7

    Bulking upgrade: add the kidney beans, coconut milk for extra energy-dense calories.
