How to Prepare Gingery Maple Glazed Tempeh on Baby Greens Salad [Vegan]

Take some tempeh strips and cook them equal amount of water. (5 strips, 4 oz tempeh, 1/2 cup water). Add salt, ginger powder, garlic powder, red chili powder to taste, 1/2 teaspoon soy sauce/tamari, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, and a teaspoon of maple syrup and cook covered on low-medium for 10-12 minutes till tempeh doubles and the water is all absorbed by the tempeh.
Add a teaspoon canola or high fat oil to the pan, and toss tempeh to coat. Add a teaspoon soy sauce and 2 teaspoons maple syrup and a little grated fresh ginger(optional). Mix well to coat and let thicken and sizzle for half a minute or more depending on how black/charred you want the tempeh.
Toss your fave greens, cherry tomatoes, in lemon juice, maple, soy sauce and black pepper and salt to taste. Top with sizzling Tempeh!
We used baby greens and cherry tomatoes. Some crunchy Sesame seeds on top and Mung bean sprouts would do super in the salad too!
