Ingredients

  • 130g tempeh
  • 160g polenta
  • 80g aubergine
  • 80g cucumber
  • 50g tzatziki
  • 10g lemon juice
  • 30g red onion
  • 1 tsp dried oregano & smoked paprika

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the aubergine and cucumber, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Whisk the polenta into simmering stock and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes until thick and creamy.

  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 with oregano, paprika and lemon. Spoon over cool tzatziki and scatter with the sliced red onion when serving.

  5. 5

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

  6. 6

    Build the plate: soft polenta first, then the veg and tempeh, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the cucumber.
