Tempeh Panna e Funghi
How it should look like - Now do it better!
This recipe is AMAZING, I love it. I've learnt that mushroom with a bit of soy sauce is a perfect match.
Ingredients (2 people)#
- Tempeh: 200 gr
- Vegetable cream (single): 200-300 gr
- Mushroom: one pack
- Soy sauce: 3 tbsp
- White wheat flour or Corn flour
- Olive oil
Method#
- Cut the mushrooms into strips, and add them to the a pan (stick or non-stick, as you prefer), with a couple of TBSP of olive oil. If they're large, maybe cut each strip in half.
- Add 3 TBSP of soy sauce to the mushrooms in the pan, and cook for 10 mins
- Whilst the mushrooms cook, cut the tempeh into cubes, prepare a bowl with a bit of flour in it, and put the tempeh cubes in it as well, so that they are floured well
- When the mushrooms are ready, take half of them out of the pan and put them in a blender
- The other half stays in the pan. Add the floured tempeh cubes to the pan with the remaining mushrooms, with a splash of water so everything doesn't stick, and put on a medium-low heat - let it cook for 3-5 minutes
- In the meantime, blend the remaining mushrooms you had put in the blender
- Then mix the cream with the grinded mushrooms and stir
- Add the cream and mushroom mixture to the pan with the cooking tempeh and stir. Leave for a few minutes until the texture of the cream has thickened
- Add salt to taste (or alternatively, I like to add a tiny bit more of soy sauce)
- And it's ready - Enjoy!
Tips#
This is another one of those that can't go wrong. Cream and mushroom is just a fabolous match and a great combination of flavour, enhanced even further by the soy sauce. The tempeh adapts well to the overall flavour of it's your protein of the day DONE!
