  • 15g miso paste
  • 5g ginger
  • 5g honey

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the carrot and spinach, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Rinse the quinoa and simmer in 2 parts water for 15 minutes until the tails appear, then fluff.

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

  4. 4
